Who here loves a good Aussie Adventure?
I do and in July/August I will be making one of the greatest adventures of all time. HAST is the Happy Alps Snowshoe Trek. A solo female trek of approximately 700km across the Australian Alps from Tharwa in the ACT to
Walhalla in Victoria through Namadgi, Kosciuszko, Alipine and Baw Baw National Parks.
I will be sharing this adventure with you all but I have some great news I must share with you all now, I'm too excited to keep it to myself. Australian Geographic Society have just offered to help share that Australian Spirit of Adventure!

This is one very happy walker :D
In the meantime, next week I fly out to Alice to start the Larapinta Trail on Saturday. Very Excited! Stay tuned for a blog when I return :)

Good for you terra, most people don't realise just how much you miss in a vehicle as compared to walking it.
A group of mates, we have walked for 20 + years together, and the AAWT (
Walhalla to Tharwa) were some of our greatest trips.
Larapinta soon hey ??
Think about getting dropped (
Glen Helen) out the west end of MT Zeil range and bagging that peak. 2 extra days, very tough 2 days though !! : )
Then the LT back to Alice.
Did that one a couple of years ago.
If you want any advice re that, just drop me a line back.
Happy and safe walking.

Thanks Les.
Sounds like a good challenge out to Mt Zeil. This trip will not be long enough but it will give me something to do when I return in 4 years and have some spare time.
