Track Towns and Supplies
- Did you have any issues finding food/supplies? Yes
- Apart from a food drop at Brookton Hway, we provisioned along the track without a problem. Selection was sometimes sparce and we called ahead to check on availability in a couple of places. We found it fun to improvise and felt better supporting the communities on route.
Your Story or Advice for Others
General CommentsA fantastic asset to WA, kudos to all involved in building and maintaining the trail
Your Best Equipment
We both had a One Planet 55L "Extrovert" pack that was comfortable, perfect size, durable and reasonably lightweight - and Aussie made.
Your Worst Equipment
We ended up sending our rain pants home as the weather warmed and I reckon a poncho may be better than a raincoat
Advice for Others
Most people we spoke to who were double hurting had to stop, skip a section or were in pain due to physical injury. So unless you really know your fitness and preparedness, don't plan to double hut. Allow a warm up and see how you go.
