BIBBULMUN TRACK Episode 1 - First Steps

First part of the Bibbulmun Track hike in Western Australia. A few months ago I decided to hike the Bibbulmun Track and see how far I would get before having to go back to work. Stay tuned for more updates :D Enjoy the video 😄

    Hey Dori I am back watching your old videos. I miss you. Need some more videos popping up on my screen. hope your well. Planning a trip just cant decide what to do and thought one of your smiley videos might convince me. I am from Bunbury WA thinking about walking to Perth then bussing it down to Albany and walking home. Whats the date your starting your hike here in this video. I have heard that down south at certain times of the year you can walk through water all day and deep! Anyway thanks for making all these videos. Ray.

    @@DorisHikingAdventures I too have dehydrated a few meals. It is pretty hit and miss though. Making the food is pretty easy - the problem is rehydrating and eating it! Some dishes simply do not work. I guess you need to test out what works for you. One issue is the time it takes to rehydrate - some dishes you really have to presoak for hours. The other problem is it is hard to add the right amount of water. I tend to end up with a soup like dish. Not good if you are trying for a spag bol or beef curry (my two favourites). I find soupy spag bol to be very unappetizing. I can handle a soupy beef curry, but it takes so long to rehydrate. In the main I have gone back to asian noodles.

I had planned on doing this hike last year, but Covid stopped me. Not sure if I can do it now, but hope springs eternal! I am keenly anticipating the next video

    Oh no! That's no good! I also suffer from lower back pain and knee pain. I do find that stretching morning and evenings helps a lot. To be honest, I prefer to put a muscle relaxer in my first aid kit, in case of really bad pain that always helps for me.
