General Comments

Walked from Kalamunda to Woolbales and had to pull out due to an injured ankle. Then returned in September 2010 to complete the Track all the way to Albany.

Food/Supplies Comments

The first time on the Track I did a lot of food drops.  The second time I relied on the food shops in the towns along the way.

Favourite Section

Walpole to Albany.

Highlights

Walking the whole Track, early mornings, getting to the camp at the end of each day and meeting fellow walkers.

Personal Reactions

Always a good feeling to be back on Track, seeing, hearing, feeling the bush.

Wildlife

Lots of snakes, kangaroo, emu, possums, small mouse like creatures and whales.

Your Best Equipment

Backpack.

Your Worst Equipment

Sleeping mat with a leak which I could not find.
