Weather:

Frozen this morn, then sun came out. Anything in the shade stayed frozen.

General:

Woke up chilled to the bone. Everything that has moisture in it = frozen…I snapped a hose in half trying to turn it on. Trail was cool, it follows the historical railway, once used for transporting timber. A few major feats of engineering on display. One of them being the Ongarue Spiral. Which allowed the lokeys transporting the timber to gain elevation quickly in difficult terrain. Found an old hut that I used for shelter as rain was forecast overnight.
