General Comments
I walked the Track on behalf of my mum Frieda who passed away from cancer. We had always wanted to do it together but unfortunately she was too sick, but I think she shared the experience with me. I hope she had as much fun as I did!
Food/Supplies Comments
Mmm noodles….long live Mi-Goreng! Chocolate was very important…and wine!!
Favourite Section
Around Pemberton (Pemberton to Warren rocks!)
Highlights
Walking amongst the giant karri - tingle forest and daydreaming about the amazing treehouses possible…The canoeing, we spent ages just paddling around.
Personal Reactions
The torrential hail storm was VERY impressive.
Wildlife
Rather too many dugites…but also lots of roos and birds.
Your Best Equipment
Candles! Means you don’t have to go to bed too early!
Your Worst Equipment
Tek towel, lets face it, how often do you shower.
Advice for Others
Less is better! If you will only use it occasionally don’t take it! (PS test your ‘waterproof’ boots before setting out!) Take an MP3 player, its a great pick-up for dreary days. Have fun!! Life is an adventure, be proud of you achievements!
