My apology as it seems I did not load this trek until now when they have passed the half way point. This trek commenced as planned on the 28th June from Owers' Corner with Kingsley Boropi as their guide. Trekkers in this group include :
-
[*]Pam Carroll
[*]Mattias Mikl
[*]Carlos Mikl
[*]Yannick Mikl
[*]Margaret CarterLast night found them at Templeton's Crossing so are presently ahead of schedule. According to Kingsley, the boys are setting a fast pace and the women must be fine to be keeping up with them.
Past the half way point now and heading for home, being Kokoda.
This afternoon I spoke with Pam and Margaret. They sounded so happy!

Today they crossed over Eora Creek followed by a walk up to Alola Village before deciding to go a little bit further down the track. Tomorrow morning picture them walking into Isurava Memorial area and down through the wild choko fields. Go team 1029, you will soon be celebrating your successful trek.
