Your Story or Advice for Others

General Comments
An unbelievable walk, inexpressible in words.

Your Best Equipment
Tea towel. Don't bother with an inexpensive microfibre one. It's cheaper and works as a beach towel, shower towel, and of course a tea towel.

Your Worst Equipment
Thermal top was too small and kept making my back cold when it rode up.

Advice for Others
Slow down. If you're an average hiker, plan at least 55 days for an E2E.

Your Experience

• Availability of information: Excellent
• Amount of Wildlife Encountered: Great - I was meditating at Blackwood at sunset when when I heard some thumping behind me. I slowly turned and 5 metres from me were two boxing kangaroos! I watched in awe until one, submitted and hopped away. Didn't realise they really did that!

Highlight of your trip
Doing it with my mum was a highlight. Working as a team and having a coffee brought to me in bed every day at 5 am was nice.
