I was sent here by Scouts Australia e-learning module.

Is there any place to charge my phone on the trail? Otherwise I’m going to need to have some chargers in my food drop. Thanks!

THANK U FOR SHARING.

Great interview, I'll have to put this walk on my bucket list ☺️

Sounds fabulous. I think I have day hiked some of this, over the decades. Certainly some of the Kosciuszko section. Nice to have a new multi day hike option, but also great that it goes through some of the resorts. Always an issue to organise pick ups. I have hitched in and out of many a hike over the years, if no public transport. If hiking solo people should have a personal locator beacon on them. Even if with a group, someone should have one.

Going all Kevin McLeod. Ha, fantastic.

It’s all good and cute until they find a corner to use as a toilet

Are you going to relocate them, or leave them?

You’re just up the hill from me!

That's birds not dogs

Thank you for doing that and for sharing. I've just bought the latest V3 and I'll be trying it out next week for two nights.

sometimes i do use photoshop software, open the pdf in there, button 'image', then 'canvas size', then i do change it to A3 size, ...... press 'ctrl & T' together to move map into right position to print on A3, ... then save it as pdf again, .... the i go to officeworks to print that A3 file ...

in Adobe pdf reader press 'button edit', go to 'more', select 'Take a snapshot', ..... select your print area with this tool

Great video! Do you take sun, cold weather, or waterproof gloves?

Caro mentioned that I was preparing to hike the Tahoe Rim Trail. Just a quick update… I finished it today. 12 days, 25,000ft elevation gain, 250km. All went really well… Maybe a bit slower 😂

Great. Thank you.

Dot Butler would be proud of you. I only just discovered your sites today, maps have always been a problem to get and a pain to work with in the bush. Magnetic grids, cutting them down and somehow making them more durable helped. The Yanks have booklets of maps for trails, when you've done one section, you just rip it out and use it to start a fire. Imagine double sided printing combined with track notes. Officeworks or the like may be useful for those that don't have the tech. Go Tiger...Go

G'day Looks good. I've printed thing in the past from "Fire North" They have active fire data amd overlay onto various map imagesincluding topo.

Nice, do you do anything like this for Scouts still, any training, tips etc?

Thanks! ... 🌎 ❤️

I wanted to help everyone out who has been wondering where to source and then how to download topographic maps (official topos) for each state of Australia. Not only where to find them (I've put them all in my blog post lotsafreshair.com/where-to-get-topographic-maps/) but the print settings you need to use to get the best results. Yes, yes... there's loads of navigation apps out there, but there's nothing quite like using a paper map.

Good video. Been using this technique for years while camping. You should also mention that this indicates True South and not Magnetic South. Also, the compass app in most smartphones is defaulted to Magnetic and can be changed in the settings to show True .

thank you!

So glad you said it is for malnourished children, I was going rant that you shouldn’t be eating it. Cleverly and well explained. Such a vital high calorie food for starving little ones!

I just got back from the Bogong High Plains at 12:30am this morning. Perfect episode to listen to while I unpack, wash, and put away all my gear 😀

Hi lotsafreshair We are hiking this trail End to End. Did any of the campsites have USB chargers and were they working? Thanks Tel and Phil

Wonderful video, the Central West Bushwalking club did 2 amazing weekend trips in Jul 2024 - day trip snowshoes with the luxury of warm Jindabyne accommodation in the evenings ;)

this is such a good lesson for us all!

Wow! Amazing cautionary tale about what can go wrong when we are out in wilderness areas, even for people with years of experience. Thanks for sharing your story Andy! It might save someone a similar fate, or worse.

great interview!

Thanks for getting such an interesting guest on your show I live in the Northern Rivers looking out towards the ranges Andy tramped all over. I did some of those walks around New England in my 20’s but took ropes and some climbing gear as insurance - so respect.

The problem with the bladders is the taste. My kadaydyn befree tastes nasty like how a pool floatie smells.

Who provides this trek?

Rule 7 boarders on gatekeeping and I feel we should be more aware of how we post rather than trying not to post at all. Nature is there for us all to enjoy and we shouldn't keep anything secret because nobody is more deserving of nature than anyone else. This might be a hot take but i hope its not too controversial.

What happens if y have big boobs

hiii I would love to do this track in later and want to ask something, actually I had done the trip to cradle mountain few time, so is it the first day have the most higher attitude gain? and about the camping , I saw there are wood platform there so how can we set out camp stable on the ground? Usually if it is on a soil , I do with a nail at the end of the rod and make it tight

thanks for the video, I have been told tracks are overgrown since 2020 bush fire, do you know anyone who did the course recently ?

Hi, Woohoo to you for all of your hiking. How much does the pack weigh?

Looks like a great pack, where is it available from please

Now where getting there an Ultra light pack of good size and With a proper frame.

Looking forward to seeing you take this out for a test drive Caro

Thinking of booking for next year, is January andFebruary too hot, and do you take drinking water from the streams the whole way?

Wouldn't the synthetic not breath as well and make you sweat then wind will make you cold due to being wet?

great video! I'm using it for my homeschool class. God bless you!

Great episode

Thank you Caro This process is like piping icing on a cupcake. Amusing spit and “Don’t worry I’ll get that”.

🇵🇬🇵🇬,

Really enjoyed this podcast! Love your channel!! :)

Right. Visit the Nature himalayan mountains

Absolutely amazing
