Made.it to Naseby. Skipped the Naseby forest section as it is closed because of extreme fire risk. Not gonna complain about getting an extra 30 mins for zzzzzzs back though.

Arrived kurow after the best sleep out in the biv.
Light rain overnight and there's cloud hanging in the valley. A pleasant 17°c this morning.
Conditions are favourable for riding bikes.
