Your Story or Advice for Others

General Comments
This is a trail that anyone can get something out of. No matter how long you intend to be out of how fit you are.

Your Best Equipment
My dry bags. They saved my butt (or at least kept my clean undies dry) on the inlet crossing.

Your Worst Equipment
Mosquito net. Unfortunately it doesn't seem to be mouse resistant as they chewed right through it. I'll be bringing a small tent next time.

Advice for Others
Don't be afraid to walk in summer. Just plan accordingly, be prepared to walk early or not at all. And have a plan for bushfires.

Your Experience

• Availability of information: Great - No issues at all.
• Amount of Wildlife Encountered: Excellent - So many more wallabies that usual. Echidnas were good to see and the fairy wrens were a constant companion.
