General Comments
I have wanted to do this walk for so many years and am so grateful that I chose to take time out from life and just do it. It’s never a good time for something like this, being away from family, work and life; you just have to make it happen!
Thank you to all that make this amazing walk possible - from DPaW and the Foundation and to all the volunteers.
Food/Supplies Comments
I dehydrated all of my food ahead of time - there is nothing better than a satisfying dinner out on the track, particularly in the cold!
Favourite Section
Donnelly River to Pemberton - loved the roller coaster through the Karri forests!
Highlights
So, so many. Can’t list them all here.
Wildlife
My highlights included watching whales at Long Point as the sun set, and seeing a pod of dolphins playing in the waves on my last day.
Your Best Equipment
My down sleeping bag - bought online and delivered to me in Balingup. Definitely did not regret the upgrade!
Your Worst Equipment
My cold sleeping bag prior to the upgrade.
Advice for Others
Get out there and do it! It’s amazing easy to just keep on walking.
