General Comments

A very big thank you to the BTF, volunteers and rangers. The Track is a wonderful experience to have on our West Australian doorstep. To be able to follow the Waugal to a shelter and water every night is a small miracle, made possible by the above.
An enormous thank you to my personal Track angel (my wife Teresa). Washing, food, driving.
