General Comments
Was an amazing experience to share with my sister. The scenery was spectacular the weather was kind to us and we shared many laughs and tears. Issy from Foundation was amazing with all her help and advise before heading out. I can recommend joining the foundation as it was wonderful to see all the hard work all the vlounteers do with the track.
Food/Supplies Comments
I put a lot of time and effort into food prep and food drops and I am glad I did. We used a trail angel and they were amazing. Every town was also very well stocked
Favourite Section
Hard to narrow it down but I loved Giants to Peacefull bay , Balingup to Blackwood and Torbay to Sandpatch
Highlights
Seeing the ocean for the first time on walk and definitely the Karri and Tingles
Swimming in the Southern Ocean
Personal Reactions
Had some tough days especially on the sand dunes seeing miles in front the path knowing we had to still walk there. Had a spectacular thunder storm walking into boat harbour
Wildlife
Not that many snakes but loved seeing 2 emus running on track
Your Best Equipment
my trusty old pack and my pillow !
Advice for Others
Try not to rush this walk. I know many people have time restraints but you need to take your time and appreciate the scenery to allow time to just sit and embrace where you are !!!!
Join the foundation !!!!!! The track is what it is due to AMAZING work by all the volunteers and Bibb foundation team.
