Today we welcomed back a second time trekker, William Tincknell, some family members and friends made up as follows:

So far everyone is ok and doing well which is great news. Ernst called around 6:30am this morning to report in. He said it has been raining and that side of the track at the moment is wet. Today they will cross paths with our other two treks heading in the opposite direction. News has gone out and they are very much looking forward to catching up with Antony Zahra and our two porters walking with him.

Everyone remains ok and going well.
Well done to trekkers on these two treks as they walked under the archway this afternoon and are now back in Port Moresby. Congratulations everone from all of us here at Kokoda Trekking. To Rowan Cunningham and Matthew O'Sullivan, you finished a day earlier than expected due to your guide Eric coming down with Malaria in Menar, once again well donei.
FYI, Eric called on the two way radio and said he is remains in Menari and will stay a few more days to get his strength back before walking off the track back home to Sogeri. Thank you all for choosing Kokoda Trekking to take you across the track. Photographs will be posted later this afternoon.
