Today was another choice between a long and short hike due to locations of available accommodations. This time I chose a short day and didn’t start until 10:30 and arrived at camp by 3:30 making it a leisurely pace.  The tracks in the forest were easy to walk and the absence of mud made it like a walk in the park by comparison to Raetea.  The highlight of the day was seeing 2 Arapawa Goats on the trail.
