General Comments
Did 4/5 of the Track in 2008. Filled in two gaps in 2010, (Southampton Bridge to Pemberton and Randall Road to Mundaring Weir). We missed them in 2008 because my wife (Kerry) had ‘shin splints’.
Food/Supplies Comments
In 2008 all food was prepacked and delivered to each town for collection.
Favourite Section
Mt Chance, Mt Cooke, Beavis to Beedelup.
Personal Reactions
Particularly pleased to complete the Track with an artificial knee and a fused ankle.
Wildlife
Very interesting - particularly seeing tiger snakes, quokka and bandicoots.
Your Best Equipment
A pair of good boots.
Advice for Others
Include a few rest days - we didn’t in 2008 causing Kerry to get ‘shin splints’
