General Comments

Enjoy the journey. Don’t rush or double-‘hut’ unless necessary. Possum Springs - Dookanelly needs recontouring.

Food/Supplies Comments

Lots of nuts & dried fruits. Fresh food in towns. Got sick of pasta.

Favourite Section

Peaceful Bay to Walpole - very diverse section. Tingle - WOW.

Highlights

The whole trip was brilliant. Spending two months with my daughter (19) was a time I would not swap for anything. Very, very special.

Personal Reactions

To see how my daughter loved the walk, the sights, the shelters, the wonderful people we met. She never complained.

Wildlife

Franklin - possum, Beavis - birds, Nerang - quenda.

Your Best Equipment

Boots and Thermarest.

Advice for Others

Look after yourself, feet especially. Take it easy. If you rush you will miss so much of the intricate details of this fantastic walk. You will finish a different person. JUST DO IT!
