Day 6 – The Remarkables
After the adrenaline-soaked activities yesterday, we decided to have a more chilled out day today by visiting the nearby Remarkables ski field and hiking up to the nearby Lake Alta.
Lake Alta is a very pretty body of water.
Extremely excitingly, there was honest-to-goodness snow on the ground around the lake! This might be garden variety common in these parts, but it’s pretty rare to see snow in Western Australia.
I was 46 years old before I got a chance to throw a snowball at someone.
Just one of the wide diversity of minuscule plants in this area.
Back down the mountain to Queenstown again. The kids were broken by this point, so we left them in the motel and went strolling around. This really is an unreasonable beautiful area.
They perked up enough to come out for ice-cream after tea, though.
