Here's a few pics of my weekend poking round the bush on my lonesome after picking up the old GQ from Millweld in Mansfield.
Got up to Lake Cobbler in the arvo then did the 4K walk up to the top of Mt Cobbler. Surprised to see a bit of snow up there. Came down the Speculation track and back to camp along the vehicle track.

Never noticed before (only been up there once before) but you can see the lake from the top. Was pretty dark and gloomy but pretty dramatic. Pics don't do it justice really.

Did the walk to the top of the falls then bush bashed down as far as you could go down the spur. Were some pretty good views but lighting as crap with too much contrast an pics look terrible in comparison.

Cobbler-Abbeyard Track. Was pretty cruisy ridgetop drive, had some crazy views but been wanting to do this one for ages.

Camp on helipad on Mt Buckland. Was going to stay the night on Mt Murray but was seasonally closed near the top. Have to revisit that one. . .

Headed across Goldie Spur track around the back of Mt Buffalo which pretty much follows the power lines through to Whitfield. Heaps of water coming off Buffalo.

Cutting back home through to Eildon from Bonnie Doon, tried to bypass Mansfield as much as possible!
