General Comments

The hardest and best thing i have ever done!

Food/Supplies Comments

Highly recommend dehydrating your own food and using cold soak for lunches. Towns are great for restocking, especially fresh fruit

Favourite Section

Walpole to Northcliffe - loved the diversity and the huts

Highlights

Sunrise over Wilsons Inlet and the canoe ride across.

Waalegh sunset after hiking in a thunder storm.

Personal Reactions

Breakdowns and breakthoughs across the entire hike. Carried an injury for over 200km, had one blister just over half way and face planted the pea gravel putting my teeth through my lip, but I made it!

Wildlife

Too many snakes and spiders for my liking, loved the birds especially the fantails.

Your Best Equipment

My chair well worth the extra weight for the number of times i used it.

Your Worst Equipment

My tent, way too heavy

Advice for Others

Hike your own hike, take time to stop an appreciate your surroundings, stop and hug a tree, keep a journal, take the photos, enjoy every moment!
