General Comments
Loved the adversities, challenges and the people we met along the way. Funny how you dread a section that is supposed to be hard, then you do it and realise it’s attainable.
Food/Supplies Comments
Hated it when I ran out of chocolate.
Favourite Section
Sloshing through the water on the Pingerup plains for 6 days.
Highlights
The people, the landscape, the shelters that “jump out” at you on a hard day.
Personal Reactions
Coping with home sickness was hard.
Wildlife
Seven snakes, a grumpy sow, kangaroos, quendas, maroo, quokkas, birds & wildflowers.
Your Best Equipment
My minus 10 degree sleeping bag & liner.
Advice for Others
Keep your pack & equipment minimal & simple. Everything in your pack should have more than one use.
