General Comments
Overgrown trail on coastal sections caused way too much discomfort back in 2006 on my continuous end to end. Delighted this rectified for my finish to sectional E2E last month.
Food/Supplies Comments
Carried 10 days food between Walpole to Albany (comfortably). Sustained by rolled oats.
Favourite Section
Rame Head to Peaceful Bay.
Highlights
Looking back to whence I came from “Tower Hill” at William Bay. Relatively comfortable walking of the isolated plains or Broke Inlet.
Personal Reactions
Man versus nature, reward for effort and sense of áchievement providing positive reinforcement of self.
Wildlife
Two different kangaroos, Happy to stand in my way and continue eating . Amazing. Had to underarm a twig.

Advice for Others
Bibbulmun is self satisfying by arduous effort. It is not romantic, familiarise first.
