Worth the effort.

Your Best Equipment
Icebreaker merino wool shirts and underwear, Sea to summit large nylon poncho easy to put on and easy to take off and a great windbreaker. Altra lone peak 5 shoes were great aswell.

Your Worst Equipment
Mountain Designs Carbon Fibre Trek poles. The poles broke 6 hours into the the hike. Had to be resupplied at Dewellingup with Leki ones.

Advice for Others
Get wool clothes and socks. Your legs are going to get conditioned between 8 and 11 days and you’re going to find it easy to knock out the kilometres but not at first.
