Hi I have just finished my first overland/multi day hike with my husband and loved it.I wanted to extend many thanks to all of you out there for sharing your knowledge and experience through this forum. I have learnt many things from you all and it made our experience so much better to be prepared and ready for anything. A huge thanks to Frank and Sue Wall their ebooks were fantastic and our food was the envy of many(we shared quite a bit of it)I am definitely going to do it again, what a beautiful place to be lucky enough to walk in. Thanks to you all. :D

whoops looks like a few of my descriptions are muddled up but you get the idea.I also neglected to thank Monica and John Chapman,their book is a great guide and also we bought Warwick Sprawson's book on the overland and it too was a great help.Thanks again everyone, So much information my mind boggles :lol:
