Along the track between the duck pond and the hut someone had got lucky. Second time exploring along the ridge west of the Track but no deer again this time not helped by getting caught up in a bit of that supplejack. Will Message you some waypoints.

I Saw you entry in the book, Cheers to who ever left the lantern in the hut its still there now but I did make good use of it. I headed to the swampy area in the north east of the hut and made my way through there till just before night fall, Slow going I forgot the damn secateurs Plenty of deer tracks throughout but it was mostly cutty grass and a shitload of supplejack, Slow and noise going, I sat down for a rest at one point in there and not long later I could here a strong consistent tapping against wood, Couldn't work it out but went to try investigate and it stopped. Possible deer? I did notice what seemed to be relatively fresh shit on my journey through there. The 'x' on google earth view was my starting point.

What sort of lantern? need to check my gear when I get home, and get out my GPS to grab those Way Points.
