New Swag & Packing Started for Maralinga Trip

This year we decided to get a new swag. The AOS swag we have been using is due for a new mattress and some additional waterproofing but has been great for the last 12 years of heavy use.

This this trip we are breaking in our new BOAB Territory Dome which we brought at Ray's (yes we paid for it).

One thing I was not happy about yet was the level of water ingress during the watering down phases. We will see how this progresses over the next few weeks.

We decided on this as it gives us much more room than we have had before and the new 70mm bed will be a big improvement.

So yes we are now in the jamb it all in the car packing stage of the trip and expecting to depart tomorrow morning.

We have decided to go out via York and Hyden, then the Hyden Norseman Rd to Norseman. We want to publish a treknote for this road so we will be doing the research and recording for this section.

We will publish more as it happens so keep an eye on our blog.
