Today we decided to tackle our first real hike. We were in good spirits; the van was running well and we had soaked in all sorts of hot pools of ick so we were both feeling a bit like gumby on valium. So we went to the park transit office to arrange to be picked up after the hike (it is one-way in). Unfortunately, we had just missed the last bus for drop-off. No problem, the guide said, just hike in to the highest point (about 2/3 of the way) and hike back out. It should take around 6 hours.
