Day 3: (Mon 08/03/04 Taranaki Anniversary Day) -- Dusky Hut to Loch Maree Hut 6hrs
Luckily the tide was wrong for wading through mud, so we followed the "undulating" track around the top of the cove to easier going by the Seaforth River. No Moose, blue duck or even long-tailed cuckoos seen, just the odd fantail. A nice waterfall was a pleasant surprise.

The Seaforth River has some amazing tranquil sections (apparently a different story in flood as the massive piles of drift-wood attest).
