General Comments

I enjoyed walking and loved meeting new people. I fell in love and decided that I needed a Bib track hut of my own. I set about transforming my bush Humpy into a Bib Track inspired hut. The Hartridge Hut. Approx 30km east of Tom Road Hut.

Food/Supplies Comments

Supported by a lovely track angel Chalene.

Favourite Section

Karri forest around Pemberton and the paddock just outside of Walpole where I had a lovely nap.

Highlights

Meeting people and making friends on the track. Special thanks to Simone aka “the porridge girl”, Emu, Nigel aka “old Josh” and Sarah Marquis.

Personal Reactions

At the 600km point I realised I don’t like long distance hiking! Haha

Wildlife

Lots of snakes.

Your Best Equipment

Grass tree flower walking sticks and my chair.

Your Worst Equipment

Tent, too heavy.

Advice for Others

Walk your own walk!
