Track Towns and Supplies

Did you have any issues finding food/supplies? Yes
If you don’t have any specific dietary requirements and don’t mind forking out some cash, it’s very easy to resupply in the towns. Dehydrating my own food and doing drops would have been cheaper but I liked the convenience and flexibility of getting supplies along the way. I was stoveless so I’m not sure how the towns are for gas canisters.

Your Story or Advice for Others

General Comments
Great way to spend a month and half. Really enjoyed being able to slowly take in the bits of southwest wa I’ve only driven past before. Met so many wonderful people, all good for a chat.

Your Best Equipment
Macpac Pisa jacket. Only insulated layer I brought and It was all I needed. Also made a great pillow.

Your Worst Equipment
Cheap trekking poles

Advice for Others
If possible, leave your schedule open ended or at least give yourself an extra week from when you expect to finish. This will allow you to take time for injuries, spend more time at hut with cool people or take an extra day in town.
