Australian Alps Walking track - Oz4adventure Follow us Tracker

Well the time has come, we are just 11 days now from starting our Australian Alps Walking Track adventure.  Monday to Wednesday just past Tim and I drove all over the Australian Alps delivering our food drops to the planned locations, Kiandra, Thredbo YHA, Hope Rd, Omeo Highway, Hotham and Rumpff Saddle.



Not only do we now feel prepared from a logistics complete point of view but it also gave a chance to get some visual bearings of where the trail will be entering and exiting certain points along our journey.




We also viewed a small glimpse of the scenery which is to come, we are now not only motivated and inspired but ready to go!

3 years ago when Tim & I set out to walk the AAWT end to end we did so to raise awareness for mens mental health and depression.  We have spoken to a lot of people about the hike over the last 3 years so we hope somewhere in all those discussions we have helped someone to get through something.
We would also like to take the opportunity to again let everyone know that we are here, if you every need a ear to listen.



For all of the support of our friends and family we thank you all, we thank you for reading our posts, we thank you for the birthday gifts and christmas gifts over the years that have not been so much as surprise as we have demanded very specific gear so we could achieve this goal.  We thank you for your love and well wishes.  Now we need 1 more thing from you all, we need to know you will be watching us!  Below is the link to the "Spot Tracker" which we will have on daily from camp to camp so that everyone can follow our progress, as well as see if we get into trouble!  Please share this link with friends and family who may wish to follow us, please follow us yourselves and keep us in your prayers.

The current track markers were recorded during our drive to place the food drops as a demonstration for followers of what to expect to see during our hike, these markers will be removed from the page prior to our departure.
