Day 11
13.3 km
Cum 228.3 km
Camped: Swamp Oak
After my last night in a bed for a week or so , as well as a good breakfast and shower it was off from Boddington to Dwellingup. Luke was nice enough to drop me off in town and then take the boys out for the day. I had gotten my second Pfizer yesterday and wanted to make sure I didn’t have any side effects. All was good in the day and overnight.
I know I’m going to miss this bunch and being fed such lovely meals and good company!
I started on the track a little before 10h00. I had my raincoat on as it was supposed to start raining soon.
The first section was through natural forest , and was fairly flat. The sun stayed out and I had to stop to remove the rain jacket.
The scenery changed when we headed into a pine plantation. Then the effort level changed when the trail hit a 200m elevation change. It was a good effort.
Fairly shortly after hitting the flat , about 3km from camp, I bumped into Carmel. She is doing the section I’m on now, at the same pace. So we walked the last few kilometers together.
We arrived at about 13h15 and met up with people who are headed north.
We had a little, tiny rain shower, then sun again.
Another fire starter at camp, and we had a fire going by 16h00 after a lot of effort in wood collection.
A grandfather, father and son also walked into camp, to complete our ensemble for the night.
