Looks like a great trip Thanks for sharing and the tarp looks very well set up
Thanks walker
Great stuff mate, looks like good weather too
.
I love these kinds of trip report.
Thanks for posting this
Cheers Salad, aye the weather was fine.
Cracking good reading mate and some stellar photos to boot, those blister.....ouch....what did we tell you?
the youth of today honestly
looking forward to the next installments, on a side note, would have been nice to have a photo of all your kit (after heading the various advice), would just complete the thread nicely.....that and the rest of the story/trail of course.
Cheers Lister, I know I know
. It was more how quickly I got them, I kind of got taken by surprise. I just didn't expect to have to worry about them straight away, I soon learned that the trail wasn't going anywhere and to deal with my needs as they came. I'll get a final kit list with some analysis up.
Great report so far C_H, and great photo's, damn them heels looked sore, Awaiting the rest, Well done bud
Cheers Lucan
Great stuff. What's spesh about Sudocrem? I'm just turning out my med kit and changing things around so interested.
I find sudocrem great for any skin based ailments. Chapping, burns, sunburn, bites and stings; its good stuff
Good stuff, well done for going it alone and battling through with the blisters
Hope the heels are on the mend?
Thanks, yeah blisters are hurting but much better for a couple of long soaks in the bath
Really well done. There's a great sense of achievement at the end of these trips, especially when you have done it all yourself.
Excellent report too.
Thanks Harvestman, it feels really good to have done it.
Top notch, well done mate I bet you feel elated after all that. You will have to bring your maps to the next meet, I would love to have a natter about the trip, I wouldnt mind attempting it or part of it in October before the winter kicks in.
Cheers, yes I will bring them along sounds good
.
Great report mate, really enjoyed coming along
Looks like a nice route, I'll have a look at it one day.
Will we get a debrief of what worked and what didn't, was there any kit you didn't use?
Hope the feet mend soon
Thanks Rich, I'll put up my kit list shortly. Definitely hammockable I reckon too...
Brilliant trip report, thanks.
Thanks, glad you enjoyed it.
Loving this thread so far.
Photos of the load out and an assessment of good and not so good would be a great additional piece.
Didnt fancy doing it ala boone then?
Cheers Sam, kit list coming up. Main problem with Boone style would be no fire's really. Would of love to do something like this more traditionally but the weight was as much as I could manage as it was
