In October 2019 we walked from lake St Clair climbed to Little Hugel and dropped off there to Lake Hermoine before traversing the Cheyne Range and Mount Gell. From there we descended, crossed the Franklin River and trudged out to a car that had been left at the end of Dixon Canal Road on the first day. That last day was quite an epic day.
