    Gday johnnycash

    Thanks for the detailed response, much appreciated.

    My username indicates that my liver is shot, but yours tells me that you are in much worse condition. smile.gif

    Good point re knees, if there is anyone else that has done the trail with 'iffy" knees would love to hear an opinion. Although we are 12 months away I recently had an arthroscope, am seeing a sports physio and listening to anyone who has an opinion.

    Any advice in this area would be great help

    Cheers

    Hi, I have just joined as a forum member – planning a trek in August 2013. Your forum is great and the contributors are very helpful

    I am also wanting to decide which tour guide to use for our trip. Wazas last post explains the queery that I had re: the host company's commitment to share and educate trekkers of the military history along the trail.

    Does anyone have an opinion or view about the accommodation in Pt Moresby and the return transfer to the Kokada trail? As it is an unstable community we are hopeful that the tour companies give due consideration to this part of the trip.

    JennyM has commented about the concern of the stress on the knees. Although our group should be fit enough and complete a solid preparation, some of our crew (self included) are nearing 50 and are carrying the effects of sporting injuries – particularly knees. Has anyone completed the trek with similar issues and have any advice – are poles a necessity?

    Cheers
