Copland Track to Architect Hut

We spent some time in the car park organizing our stuff before heading out to Douglas rock hut. While it said 10 hours, it was only supposed to be 25k....
Such a beautiful day. 
Nick, my hero, packing 16 beers, a bottle of champagne, and a bottle of wine in his pack. Also most of our food. It was up to my waist! 
Away we go!
The track alternated between forest and river/boulders. 
Along the Copland river. 
Another distance selfie. 
Gorgeous glacial waters. 

Nick braved the cold waters while I stuck to shore. 

Continuing on one of many many bridges. This was a nice stable one. We had three wire bridges in our future that would be quite high. 

Carrying on up the valley. 

I quite like the color of the water :)

And after 3 hours (sign predicted 4) we arrived at our lunch spot of architect hut!
