Nice pace and some beautiful shots. Thank you! That bandana must be on securely to not come off in the water! How did those Temu shoes work out?

[@WildTreksAustralia]

Hey Matt, that was quite a stunning area despite the rain. The Temu shoes are doing OK. They are quite comfortable and have good drip on rock, but I noticed a small hole in 1 shoe where the materials are glued together. And that is only after using it twice! I'll keep an eye on this and will provide and update in a couple of trips.

Randomly recommended, not disappointed. Wish you would talk more to the camera though, I felt engaged at 4:33, or at 7:34, felt like I was there walking with you. Cheers mate!

[@WildTreksAustralia]

Hi John, I appreciate your feedback and will take note for my future videos. I actually cut out some of the footage in which I spoke to the camera, but it was lacking quality (poorly audible at times) and decided not to include it. However, your feedback is really appreciated 👍

Did this walk with my cousin just a 10 days after you uploaded this video. It's a tough trek especially since we are both unexperienced but it had some gorgeous scenery and it was such a fulfilling experience.

[@WildTreksAustralia]

yes, not an easy walk but a rewarding one. The Blue Gum Forest is quite picturesque.

How heavy are your packs? I’m looking at doing this one my packs about 20kg

[@WildTreksAustralia]

for this particular trip just under 12kg including 3L of water.

[@TrekandReflect]

@@WildTreksAustralia ah damn beautiful I gotta learn to cut down the weight haha

[@WildTreksAustralia]

@@TrekandReflect it's a slow process, for years I always brought too much. However, now, after each trip, I do a quick assessment of what I didn't used. It helps with packing for the next trip.

[@TrekandReflect]

@@WildTreksAustralia great advice I’ll see how I go and I’ll toss whatever I don’t use :) thanks
