General Comments
Having completed 2/3 of both the first and second Bib Tracks. I was determined to finish this one before you moved again.
Food/Supplies Comments
The longest section was for 9 days and I discoverd that foxes don’t read or drink Port but anything else is fair game. You don’t hide your food supplies well enough.
Favourite Section
Peaceful Bay to Walpole.
Highlights
The availability of water at the campsites. In the past it was quite a hasle to make sure you had water.
Personal Reactions
I have really enjoyed walking this track and will do the lot in one hit when I retire. I’d also have time to become a volunteer then.
Wildlife
I don’t think there’s anything I haven’t seen on the track.
Your Best Equipment
Macpac rucksack (I’ve gone through two).
Your Worst Equipment
Scarpa boots but I suspect it’s my Aussie broad feet.
Advice for Others
If you’re trying to entice people and kids on the track start out with easy nice sections!
