General Comments
Great track really enjoyed it
Food/Supplies Comments
Can get everything you need in track towns, no food drops or postage needed if you are not to fussy and reasonably fit. Would recommend doing it this way of you are not dehydrating. Gives you alot more flexiblity around towns and changing tastes.
Favourite Section
Everything south of Pemberton
Highlights
People meet and yarns spun along the way, food in some of the towns (burgers in donnerlly river, fish and chips at peaceful bay, experience at naughtly noodle in Northcliffe), sunrise at blackwood, swimming, wading through the plains, the beautiful south coast, climbing Gloucester tree, animals seen along the way, learning to make a fire, finding Indiana Jones on DVD after 4 weeks of looking, getting my trail name.
Personal Reactions
Loved every minute! May be a little hooked on thru hiking now
Wildlife
Family of Echidnas, big spider, many roos, snakes, emus, cool birds, bandicoot, tadpole, frogs
Your Best Equipment
Picked up a buff near the end, really love it. Having a nice warm sleeping bag was worth every penny
Your Worst Equipment
Cables for cheap earphones kept breaking, only options to buy in small towns were more cheap earphones so the cycle continued
Advice for Others
If you have the privilege to work flexiblability into your plan do it! You never know when you are going to meet people you click with and want to spend more time with. Also remember to take rest days, doing two short days wasn’t a substitute for me at least
