General Comments
It was an amazing experience that I will cherish for the rest of my life. I learnt a lot about myself, others and the natural environment. My walking companions were a lot of fun and a great support.
Food/Supplies Comments
We supplied ourselves through drop offs in the towns and supplemented them there as well. I enjoyed all my meals and still make them now, except muesli bars (haven’t had one since).
Favourite Section
North Bannister to Dwellingup (love Mount Wells), Balingup to Pemberton a great section, so much to see.
Highlights
Maringup campsite which is so beautiful at sunset and the wading we did from there to Walpole, we were dreading it but it was so much fun, the water was thigh deep in parts!
Wildlife
Saw an echidna which was cool and plenty of wrens, kangaroos, emus and cockatoo, oh and even a couple of seals.
Your Best Equipment
Thermarest sleeping mat and boots.
Advice for Others
Plan ahead and do trial runs to check if your equipment is appropriate and effective.
