    Picture this group today as they walk up Maguli Range and into Naoro. Not sure as yet whether they will stop at Naoro or keep on walking to Agulogo. Will update their position along the track as soon as I receive an update.

    Latest update: Can now confirm that this trek have stopped at Naoro for the night.

    Harold Hauro called me today to give me his update. Turned out last night they were not at Naoro, seems they decided to pull up for the night before reaching Naoro. At Maguli Range I received this text:

    "We are at the top of Maguli Range now, all trekkers n porters are well. Today we are heading to Menari for the night'.

    After arriving in Menari he phoned me letting me know they were at their destination for today.

    I spoke to Chris briefly and he sounded like he was having a great time. Apparently its hot and humid out there on the track with no rain in sight.

    This trek is now at Efogi II. According to Harold, everyone is doing well. Earlier this morning the were eager to hear the footy scores re Sea Eagles and Rabitohs game. It rained today which slowed them down as they were planning on heading further down the track. All good however, tomorrow they head to Templeton's Crossing

    Congratulations to another group of trekkers for successfully completing their trek. Earlier this morning at approximately 8:30am they walked through the archway and into Kokoda. Around 10am they were driven down to Orohaven Pija along with Brett & Trevor Smith to spend a relaxing day before flying back to Port Moresby tomorrow morning. I just phoned and checked, and they were apparently in the creek cooling off.
