Your Story or Advice for Others
General CommentsTremendous experience, it’s an absolute privilege to have such a beautiful and looked after trail in Australia and I’ve highly recommended it to all my hiking pals in Australia and abroad.
Your Best Equipment
Durston X-Mid 1p tent. Never let me down, lightweight and comfortable.
Your Worst Equipment
The Durston Kakwa 55 backpack wasn’t very comfy, particularly when carrying 5 days food but I’m almost certain I’ve the wrong torso size so user error.
Advice for Others
Enjoy yourself! Plenty of fantastic advice on the Facebook group page and Bib website.
