When Malcolm Cameron contacted us to ask if we would take him across the track at this time of the year on his own, we said yes, we can do it. So on Monday Malcolmn flew to Port Moresby where he spent the night. Yesterday he was up bright and early to catch his flight to Popondetta. This was followed by a drive up to Kokoda, arriving at our base around 3:30pm.
This morning he had another early start after spending the night at Orohaven for the commencement of his trek.
The guide for this trek is Clement Harika accompanied by Ramsy Idau.

So good news, they have reported in and they are all ok.

Clement said they are all well and enjoying themselves. Seems Malcolm enjoyed eating the choko's they cooked.
Agulogo 640×480.JPGThis trek has now reached Ioribaiwa where they are spending the night. Getting closer to the finish line now so Malcolm must be getting excited.
Today would have been a tough day as most trekkers find Maguli Range quite hard.
This trek have called in to say they will be ready for a pickup from Owers' Corner at 9am tomorrow morning.
Please note: the photograph below is from a previous trek and is only posted here to show you the type of terrain they experienced today walking.
Going down to Ua'Ule Creek from Imita.jpgCongratulations are in order as this trek walked through the archway at Owers' Corner earlier this morning. On the way back to Port Moresby they went into Bomana War Cemetery. What a place to be at 11am on the 11th November.
Well done Malcolm from all of us here at Kokoda Trekking.
