Starveall Hut / Pyramid Rock - Leader: Jim Maxwell

Nine keen trampers met at 7am to try to get to the top of Starveall and be back home on time for tea. It was hot up the Hackett and hot in the bush up the hill to the hut. Ian and David didn't want to miss out on the summit and so departed from the main body of trampers. The main group reached the hut and sat down for lunch when Ian turned up looking very refreshed and said it's nice on top and David is on his way back too. The main group went up another 100vm and turned back because of the time. Coming back most of the group went up Pyramid Rock and when we reached Hacketr creek several had a dip to cool off. Down at the Whispering Falls turnoff, Marianne decided she needed another swim while the rest of us sat in the shade. Reached the cars about 6.30pm. A very hot day. Participants: Marianne Hermsen, Roger Bruce, Grahame Harris, Mary Honey, Mark Graesser, Ian Pavitt, David Blunt, and Ross Haverfield.
