Days km: 31.8kmTotal km: 784.3km I slept in this morning. It was really, really hard to get going, and though I got a decent amount of sleep I was still pretty damn tired. The track weaves through the Wool Bale hills, large granite outcrops that dot the landscape. On one hand, I was grateful we … Continue reading Bibbulmun track day 34: Woolbales to Mt Clare

Bibbulmun track day 33: Dog Pool to Woolbales
July 12th, 2021 Days km: 41.2kmTotal km: 752.5km The forecast was for heavy rain and it seemed to be on point because when I woke up it was raining...heavily. I took my time getting ready, hoping it would ease off a bit but by 7:40 I decided it was time to get going. The rain … Continue reading Bibbulmun track day 33: Dog Pool to Woolbales
Bibbulmun track day 32: Gardner to Dog Pool
July 11th Days km: 42.8 km (Actually walked about 27 to 30km due to the diversion) Total km: 711.3 My morning got off to a great start when my coffee drained out of my cup from numerous new holes that had appeared in it overnight. Some critter had gone to town on my silicon mug. … Continue reading Bibbulmun track day 32: Gardner to Dog Pool
Bibbulmun track day 31: Northcliffe to Gardner
July 10th, 2021 Days km: 15.3kmTotal km: 668.5km I slept really well, a proper, firm mattress makes all the difference and I took full advantage of it and slept in until 9 a.m. It was glorious. My wee toe had given me some grief when I took my shoes off last night, but I got … Continue reading Bibbulmun track day 31: Northcliffe to Gardner
Bibbulmun track day 30: Warren to Northcliffe
July 9th, 2021 Days km: 33.6kmTotal km: 653.2km A big day was on the cards, so I was up and away by 6am. After crossing River Road bridge (and taking a 10 minute wrong turn at the end of it), the trail followed along the Warren River, so there were lots of short, sharp, ups … Continue reading Bibbulmun track day 30: Warren to Northcliffe
Bibbulmun track day 29: Pemberton to Warren
July 8th 2021 Days km: 22.6kmTotal km: 616.6km It took me a while to get warmed up this morning. It was cold, but the main issue was my back which was stiff and sore. The uber soft mattress at the hotel did not do my back any favours at all, and to be honest, I … Continue reading Bibbulmun track day 29: Pemberton to Warren
Bibbulmun track day 28: Pemberton (zero day)
July 7th 2021 Days km: 0.0kmTotal km: 594.0km A blessed zero day. Alas, it was not as restful as I would have liked as the mattress at the hotel was way too soft. I had to walk around a fair bit to ease the aching in my back. Not ideal. It was bucketing down with … Continue reading Bibbulmun track day 28: Pemberton (zero day)
Bibbulmun track day 27: Beedelup to Pemberton
July 6th 2021 Days km: 25.1kmTotal km: 594.0km I really should have eaten something last night. I was completely out of energy today and the walk into Pemberton was a struggle. Fortunately for me, it was fairly flat and easy terrain, otherwise I might still be out there… I’ve been so distracted by my shins, … Continue reading Bibbulmun track day 27: Beedelup to Pemberton
Bibbulmun track day 26: Boarding House to Beedelup
July 5th 2021 Days km: 43.1kmTotal km: 568.9km So, after the miserable experience that I had yesterday, I actually woke up feeling refreshed and raring to go. I slept really well on half a sleeping pad and my legs elevated on my packed up tent. Makes me wonder if I should try the small pad … Continue reading Bibbulmun track day 26: Boarding House to Beedelup
Bibbulmun track day 25: Tom Road to Boarding House
July 4th 2021 Days km: 24.2kmTotal km: 525.8km What a terrible night. One of my fellow hikers snored so loudly that I could clearly hear them despite having my music on full volume. It was also intermittent, which kinda made it worse. They would go quiet all of a sudden, and after wondering briefly if … Continue reading Bibbulmun track day 25: Tom Road to Boarding House
