Great viewing. I loaded up my pack, hopped on the treadmill, and walked along while watching on the TV. Got a good workout while keeping nice and dry. Looking forward to the next instalment.
Hi I’m loving the videos. The little summary screen at the end of each day is very useful. Hoping to do this track in the next year or two. Great videos!
Great job Martin, your Mum told me about you getting to do the AAWT that you’ve been planning for so long, can’t stand the thought of those bloody leaches 😖 will watch the rest over the next few days 👍
Stunning snowgums on mt erica, id like to do some ski touring up there with a full cover. Not a huge fan of this section of the walk, besides the plateau its such a low forest road bash, the only rhing i could think of was being in my 4wd with cold beverages 😂 prob explains why i smashed it out in 2.5 days
Thanks for the video - considering doing the AAWT or parts of it at some point before I get too old! Video v useful. Walked some of it in the 70's - between Howitt and Hotham , Bogong to Hotham. Shows how old I am...
Glad you enjoyed it. If you have already done those bit, try the Kosciuszko and main range section, very different again to what you have done. Then out to Mt Jagungal, huts are great there.
Great video and good on ya… Great summary pages for each day so ditto on previous posts. Lastly how May gas canisters did you use for your stove system
I had two per section (~5-7 days each) except for the last section due to it being shorter in duration. I work on an aspect of 11 grams of gas per boil and how many boils per day. I work on 7 per day (allowing extra coffee boils!) giving 3 days per canister. 230 grams / 11 grams = 21 boils. I never ran short of gas, normally used 1.5 cans per section.
Great videos and well done on the walk. How did you get your food drop done at Rumpff saddle, with the gates shut till end of Oct? November seems the best time to walk with cool days and plenty of daylight hours.
Thanks. For Rumpff Saddle and all my other food drops, I put them out prior to the road closures. Rumpff was the last one which I did on May 29th. Happy it was still there when I arrived during the hike 6 months later.
Thanks. With regard to the tent, good observation. I broke a pole on the original tent (grey fly) just after Mount Clear in the wind and snow. A mate meet me at Mt Hotham and swap it over to his MSR Hubba Hubba, same size, just a new version and different fly colour - orange.
Right! Thanks for clearing up that confusion…another confusing question is that it seems everyone stays at broken mile hut on the four mile trail, wouldn’t that dump you out at sawyers hut, quit a distance from Kiandra and the Nungar track? Wouldn’t it be easier to stay on the tabletop mountain trail rather than take on the road bash?@@martinjustice2514

@@martinjustice2514 Ok. Wow. That’s very organised. Any link to the food you took and stored?
G’day mat, great vid. Was wondering why your tent fly changed from grey to orange throughout the trip. Did you take two?
