Above - Sabine Hut - a nice hut - but there were lots of sandflies around - some in the hut, and also lots of wasps. We watched the wasps eating the sandflies. Also some small fantails ate a lot of sandflies.



Above - other trampers sitiing out on the jetty. This end of the lake was quite warm for swimming.
