General Comments
Would appreciate if the guide books would be printed separate for those of us walking S-N. It would be less confusing. Some sections we found hard to locate the Waugals and needed to backtrack. Must congratulate the Waugal designers for making them reflective for night walkers. A bonus for the lost!
Thanks to the volunteers for their efforts in maintaining the Track.
THE BELL in Kalamunda- What a great finale to our walk. Suggest it should be done in the south also. It certainly caused a stir and great comments all around.
Food/Supplies Comments
Keep it simple. Did not use food from camping suppliers. Prepared coffee/Milo/muesli/cereal ready mixed with powdered milk.
Favourite Section
Karri forest.
Highlights
Dwellingup Hotel’s pine-crusted rack of lamb!! The views all the way. Campsites where fires were permitted.

A menacing kangaroo. We had to take a wide berth!!
