General Comments
Being from the USA, there were beautiful surprises around every corner, middle section a bit long and plodding old 4WD track walking not inspiring but I know will improve as the Track gets older.
Food/Supplies Comments
Great supplies through out. Don’t expect gourmet of course, if your not picky it’s easy to resupply.
Favourite Section
Walpole to Albany.
Highlights
The shelters. Absolutely beautiful both in form and upkeep. The wonderful people both on the Track and in the towns. Sunset at West Cape Howe. First hot meal in Dwellingup.

About the best thing to do in Australia after getting off the plane. Great introduction to Australia’s people, flora and fauna and countryside.

Lots of roo’s, emus, parrots, cockatoos, stub tails, crows, magpies. Could do without the ticks though.
