Pemberton-Peaceful Bay. This whole section was amazing, each day an adventure in itself. Being the only person a couple of days in front and behind me to attempt going through the Pingerup Plains and it turning out to be manageable knee-deep water. Hitting the coast for the first time and walking through the giant tingle trees
