Adventure at O'Reilly's

We finally got to do our first test of gear and ideas to take the little bloke 2 or 3 days bushwalking. Our first lists resulted in huge pack weights and some of the inherent problems like keeping a small person amused, asleep in one place in a tent etc took a bit of planning and hoping! So with the final rush of hurried packing we were of to O'Reilly's at Lamington National Park for a test run.


Keeping him amused was an interesting exercise which basically came down to one of us following him to ensure he didn't get eaten by a pademelon or carried off by a bush turkey..



Keeping him in one place on a sleep mat turned out to be easy enough!






The walk out to Bithongabel was a little slower than usual - and I had forgotten what a 24kg pack feels like! But Tressies famous double choc brownies capped off an excellent adventure!
