Day 2: Barn Bluff to Pine Forest Moor

Our second day on the trail was rainy and cold.  I had read that it rains a lot on the Overland Track, so I was mentally prepared for the day in the rain.  It wasn't that bad and everything in my pack stayed dry.  I am really glad I opted to use one of TMC's gortex rain jackets.  It was a good weight and kept me dry even after an entire day in the rain.  It was also nice to have the pit-zips on the jacket as we warmed up pretty quickly when walking.  Today's walk took us through undulating moorlands and across rocky plains.  We did the side trip Lake Will and the Forth Valley Overlook which was shrouded in mist.
Total Time:  7.5 hours
Total Distance: 9.5 miles
