Leg 5: Gardens of Eden & Allah

Hi all
Andy and Anton started up again in the new year and headed into the Gardens of Eden & Allah. Word in from Mountain Radio is the are heading to McCoy hut tonight.
I cant work out why they were going to McCoy Hut, though im sure they have a reason.
That is in the head waters of the Clyde River and south from McCoy col when the planned route should be going NE from the col to Lyell hut.
The good news is that they got off the gardens safely, my guess is that they got off at Perth Col rather than Lambert Col and are droped off into the Frances Stream
They may still try and get round to the Rakaia via the Lawrence River and Butler Saddle, go south-north over McCoy Col or they may walk out at Erewhon Station
Thats my guess
Rion
ps. Im limping without crutches these days
