The wanderers return!

David and Lorraine coming down the Macleay, much earlier than I had expected them. It was a steep climb up and down via the col.

Cooking my cheese sandwich on the fire. I butter the outside of each slice so that it toasts nicely.

The system of two aluminium pie plates works well, and is much lighter than a conventional bushwalker's frypan.
