Camping in the Spectacular High Country

We are just back from a magnificent weekend in the Victorian High Country.  James and Patrick have wanted to go to Craig's Hut for some time but for various reasons we had been unable to go.  It all came together over the weekend and we packed the truck and headed for Mansfield and the Mt Stirling Circuit Road.  The weather could not have been better and we had a great run up to the hut.
It is in a wonderful location with views out over the mountains that seem to go on for ever.
There were a few people around so we took a four wheel drive track off into the bush and found a magnificent camping area and set up camp for the night.  Dinner was cooked on the fire.
 Sausages, damper and marsh-mellows.  We think we covered all the food groups.
 We even had our own Ninja warrior to protect us during the night!
It got down to near freezing overnight but we had a good night's sleep as the boys had their new super insulating sleeping bags.  Adam cranked the fire up again for breakfast of bacon and eggs.
Then one more look at Craig's Hut before returning home.
