Your Story or Advice for Others

General Comments
Very good. Huts are such a great asset to make this accessible for lots of people and various skill levels. I think it could do with a lot more markers. I also found a lot of confusion about sourcing accurate information on inlets. Parks seemed to know nothing.

Your Best Equipment
Buff Macpac alpha polartec mid layer. Nitecore Nu25 lite

Your Worst Equipment
Thermarest Neo air uberlite- it’s great but to delicate

Advice for Others
For best experience, pack weight as light as you can. Everything 12 to 14 kg. Allow as much time as you can.
