TIP: The online Bushwalk Inventory System can help bushwalkers with a variety of bushwalk planning tasks, including: Manage which items they take bushwalking so that they do not forget anything they might need, plan meals for their walks, and automatically compile food/fuel shopping lists (lists of consumables) required to make and cook the meals for each walk. It is particularly useful for planning for groups who share food or other items, but is also useful for individual walkers.

Just to let my followers know, it's still going strong. Has been used in winters in Megalong Valley, Harrietville, Bogong High Plains and many other places. Some very cold mornings but it's a treat to startup.
