General Comments

Second time round was just as enjoyable!!

Food/Supplies Comments

We posted all our food down to our accommodation they were quite happy to hold onto it for us.

Favourite Section

Donnelly River to Pemberton. So many orchids and fungi out that I hadn’t seen before, not to mention the MASSIVE hailstorm that came in while hiking through the Giant Karri forest, after 3 hrs of hail I was freezing cold, and the ice looked like a light snow fall on the ground. We were so frozen our fingers couldn’t move to get our packs open when we finally reached Beavis campsite.

Wildlife

So many babies have been born, emus, kangaroos, snakes but best of all the whale calf we watched off Dingo beach playing with his mum.

Advice for Others

Stop talking about it, instead get out there DO IT!!
