Not a long day. Not a happy day.

| Packed up Ready to move Royston River |
I started off OK and climbed out of the river valley. Sun came out and the flies started. I get up to the main road and at the turn off a notice telling me the track I'm to take is closed ahead.

| The road |
The words no access to Keppels Hut, my next camp, or Marysville.
 |
| The road eventually came to a locked gate |
I'm at a loss there is a long arse detour then a walk down a major road. So I decide to ignore and continue.

| Stll Beautiful creeks |
I get to the locked gate 4 kilometres later and it says it is closed due to dangerous falling trees. Since I've already walked across a lot of ground with the same tree problem so I continue on.
From what I can see its the difference between the National Park and State Forrest People on how they manage access. Anyway it's not a long day as I climb a 2 wheel 4wd track to Keppels Hut. I know I didn't take too many photos as the opportunities weren't numerous but I'm sure I'm missing a few.
By the time I get to the hut I've had enough of the flies and rush straight in to get some relief. I tried later to walk up the track to talk to Belinda where there was a signal but was chased back very quickly by the March fly swarm. So I collected water at a small stream beside the hut and went inside and stayed.
