Journal:

Woke up at 6:00am and on road at 7:40am.  Lyre bird outside tent.  Walked to top of Hotham (11km) quite quickly in fog most of the way, but cleared at summit for good views.  Decided to hitch from there as feet showing signs of getting very sore again.  Got a lift to Harrietville, another to Bright, another to Glenrowan and finally another to Benalla.  From there, after a two-hour wait, I caught the 5:50pm train to Melbourne, getting home at about 8:30pm.
