Ok, so you know basically how to follow a bearing on your compass. You are able to interpret the contours on a map and so you have some direction in your life. But have you really found yourself?

On this fun but more intensive weekend we go through some more theory but this time the practical aspect is out on a Rogaine. You will learn to navigate longer distances and will also learn to do it at night.

We camp out on both Friday and Saturday nights. You should be prepared to walk around 20km (through the bush – there are no trails) over the weekend. You do not need to Get Lost with Steve as a prerequisite, but it would be helpful as that course covers much more of the basic theory needed.

Includes entry fee to Rogaine and 12 month membership with the WA Rogaining Assoc, some theory and plenty of practical tuition, dinner Saturday night, breakfast and lunch on Sunday, map, map reading booklet . Own navigation compass required. Location unknown until the week prior.

    Hi folks. I have been with the Foundation since 1997, when I first joined as a member and maintenance volunteer. I wanted to get involved in the 'new' Track after getting terribly lost on the 'old' Bibbulmun Track. From there I began leading walks and then came on staff in the office in 1999 as Events Manager and Lead Guide. I love walking and have done a few end-to-ends. I really get a kick out of sharing this passion with everyone. I am still a volunteer and look after Nerang Campsite. Come and join me on this event!

    Hello! I am a retired “ex-schoolie” who was introduced to the Track in 2003 and have been volunteering with the BTF since 2004. Starting as a maintenance volunteer for Canning campsite, I became a volunteer guide and an office volunteer. I have completed five end-to-ends, including the first registered “double e-e”. Whether it’s planning a walk, cleaning ‘my’ campsite, pruning track-side vegetation, carrying my pack on Track, or simply sitting around a campfire chatting to other walkers, I love all aspects of “Bibbulmun Therapy”!

    Hi! I have been interested in the bush since an early age and have walked small sections of the Track since its inception. Early years were spent taking family and Scout Groups on weekends camping and bush walking. I maintain a section south of Collie and walking the Track has given me a great deal of enjoyment. I was part of the 10th Anniversary Walk when I completed my first end-to-end. Since this time I have spent many hours, volunteering in the office and leading walks to ensure others know and enjoy the Bibbulmun Track as I do. My favourite is to catch a bus and spend my friendship with the bush for some days and slowly come back, to where it may take me!
