General Comments

I really enjoyed my 26 days on the Track, I love the solitude of walking by myself and the physical/mental endurance it takes to walk with a pack from dawn till dusk.

Food/Supplies Comments

I just ate two minute noodles, Scotch Finger bickies and blocks of chocolate, which i could buy in the towns.

Favourite Section

The patch of Karri trees just north of Lake Maringup.

Highlights

Patting the clydesdale horses at Southampton Homestead.

Personal Reactions

Your Best Equipment

Jetboil, Fizan walking sticks and my 3 man tent.
