2022 Great Ocean Walk
Packed and ready
Last night was the final pack (sort of) as tomorrow we head to Victoria for the start of our adventure on the Great Ocean Walk. It is ‘sort of’ because there are still some adjustments to do. Our tent which is the red bundle in the back of Tim’s blue pack needs to have the poles stripped out and put into one of the side pockets which will allow the rest of the tent to packet down to a much smaller size. We also have to set up the podcast on Tim’s iPad Mini as it saves a huge amount of time doing this at home so that will be done this afternoon.
The other logistical thing as part of this pack was to check the amount of gas in our stove canister. It was lucky that Tim did because the one that was sitting with the stove from a previous trip would have lasted at best 2.5 days. It was an easy fix to swap it out for one that was almost full, problem sorted.
All up the fully loaded packs with 2.5 litres of water and food for six days for the two of us comes to:
- Tim 14.80kg
- Gill 12.88kg
