Itinerary description

Nice walk though track was slippery and very soft in places. There was places that the track marking was a bit sparse and the track not very defined so you have to look for the next track marker up ahead in the distance.
I walked on from Speargrass Hut towards Angelus hut but there was multiple creek crossings that were getting deeper each time I crossed the creek and about 1.5km into the walk it came in and started sleeting and wasn't very enjoyable at all so I turned around and had lunch back at Speargrass Hut. After this I walked back to the Mt Robert car park through the light rain.
