General Comments
The best one EVER out of my four end to ends!
Food/Supplies Comments
We tried food drops this time.
Advantage is that you have more time in the little towns along the way as the food was all sorted.
Disadvantage was not supporting the towns.
Next time no food drops for us!
Favourite Section
Getting into Albany and realising that I had done it! When I left Perth I had my doubts due to health reasons!
Highlights
Walking with the weather!
So so cold, freezing, hail, drenching rain, thunder and lightening Heaps of fun though we just loved it all.
Personal Reactions
We will be back and attempt our 4th!
Great way to keep fit and lose weight while doing something you just love!!
Wildlife
Amazing amount of baby cockatoos. The amount of birds were staggering really. An echidna crossed our track so that was something pretty special.
Your Best Equipment
Self inflating sleeping mat.
Your Worst Equipment
Boots! Terrible blisters for a week. Somehow got to North Bannister and changed my boots to sneakers and continued on without another complaint!
Advice for Others
Buy boots a half size bigger and wear double socks!
