General Comments
Very addictive pass time!
Food/Supplies Comments
Plenty of upgrades to equipment made over time. My wife started dehydrating our own food and this was fantastic. Very few cravings after a longer trip.
Favourite Section
So many beautiful sections but probably DRV to Pemberton
Highlights
Karri and Tingle forests and whales on the coast
Personal Reactions
Enjoyed the space and lack of phone coverage! Also the sense of achievement in achieving your goal.
Wildlife
Saw lots of snakes along the coast in spring. Enjoyed whales and dolphins on the coast and roos in full flight through the show grounds. Lizards of all sorts and even a few emu. Blue Wrens were beautiful. It worries me that I look at “scat” and make comment on where it may have come from.
Your Best Equipment
Electrolyte tablets to assist with hydration in warmer weather, along with sports tape to reduce blisters.
Your Worst Equipment
Probably my boots. Tried several pairs and I still get blisters etc.
Advice for Others
Get out there and look, listen and learn from the wonderful people you meet along the way.
