General Comments

Thoroughly enjoyed my Bibb Track E2E and glad I had my best mate along to enjoy the experience. My brother was able to join us on a couple of sections and it was great spending time with him too.

Food/Supplies Comments

Purchased food in track towns and was able to get what I wanted most of the time.

Favourite Section

The whole trip was memorable but I loved the big Karri through Pemberton. They are truly majestic.

Highlights

So many! Beaches, Karri, Tingles, meeting other hikers, sharing the trip with a best mate.

Personal Reactions

I was amazed how quickly I got into a rhythm and how I got stronger and fitter as the walk progressed. Had up days and bad days but a huge sense of achievement when I finished. I wanted to turn around and do it again.

Wildlife

Didn’t see a lot of wildlife due to the time of year of the walk. It was disappointing to see so much pig damage along the track.

Your Best Equipment

Sea to Summit Spark 2 sleeping bag. Small, light but kept me toasty.

Your Worst Equipment

None.

Advice for Others
