Hi Jase! Fascinating to see you’re still doing those (now even longer) long overnight walks! One of these days I gotta finish bondi to manly, but the familiar struggles you shared at the end of this video has me wondering otherwise haha.

In hindsight, I should have done a better job noting my stops, gear and such - but I was still very new to doing a trek like this :) Good thing is, the GNW is really well marked and documented, so you shouldn't have too much trouble finding good info online.

I doubt many would have the courage spirit of adventure to actually DO this trek! I know there have been people who share the same adventurous spirit you have in common; and it’s hats off to you for making this happen, filming it all, and sharing with us here on youtube! [Bravo!]

You'll learn what works for you :)

Congratulations on doing the whole walk, I'm just getting started on planning a segment or two of the GNW as a starting point (probably the Olney sections as I go camping there), as its been many years since I've done a multiday hike. Loved hearing your humble style and your insights throughout the series (I watched it all), Your journey reminded me of a 10 day walk I did on Fraser Island in the 1980s when I was a student but without the big hills and the infrastructure - Not sure if that is on your list but I recommend it.

I've come a long way since the GNW but still learning always 😊 My video gear has changed over time too. GNW was GoPro and phone, Taree was Phone and Mavic Air 2 and Tassie was DJI Pocket 2 - which was easy to use. Couldn't use the drone in Tas though.

@@Jaseinthewild Quick question, do you see any problems with trekking on solo for a female on the overland track? Your videos part 1 was not as difficult but part 2 seems a lot harder. What kind of advice would you give if travelling solo on this track? I guessed travelling solo will be harder for solo and the number of weights would be heavier and take longer to get from one hut to another, am I right?

@@noral1188 No problems no, but I'd suggest that for most people sharing the experience would be preferred rather than going alone.

You do have to carry all you need for those days, but it's not too bad with the right gear 😊

Hey Jase, really enjoying following your journey. Just to note I don't think you were on the top of Ossa. Ossa is a plateau and there is a false summit on top of those rocks before the final push. You have to go down over the rocks for a while and then climb up onto the plateau which was probably out of sight in the conditions you were experiencing. Something to look forward to next time maybe? Those gusts would have probably blown you off the top. I had to smile when you said on the video when you were going through The Japanese Garden section on the side of Mt Doris that you were almost there. What a beautiful place. Cheers, Pete

As you mentioned, doing it in 10 days means that to was not much time to enjoy - as this walk really deserves. I hope you do get a chance to do it at a leisurely pace as it is one of the real gems we have in NSW. (BTW, videos of each of my walks on my channel) Again, I really enjoyed following you along the walk. Thanks.
