The Guide

Jim – is the senior volunteer Guide for the Bibbulmum Track here in Western Australia.
This was taken in the Dwellingup Hotel beer garden after an arduous four day walk in support of the Bibbulmum Track Foundations Corporate Challenge. A four day walk during which competitors in groups of four complete several land and water based activities.

The Bibbulmum Track is a world acclaimed 1000 km walk only track from Perth to Albany on the states Southern Coast. Spaced about every 20 clicks or so are three walled huts with bunks, fire place and a bush toilet.

I reckon Jim’s done about 6 or 8 full length walks. See ya there :-)
