Going Lightweight Down Under
Here is a link to a podcast from a UK website - Backpacking Light. Bob and Rose sell light weight walking gear at good prices and great service and have a radio station. Bob interviewed Lynn Lobo and Jayne Jennifer from Adelaide, and heard how the average Australian backpacker is still carrying far too much. They discuss just a few of the hundreds of trails on offer which they have experienced, wild camping, bush fires, food and of course there are some great tips about lightweight gear. This is 50 minutes of pure escape - and great promo for Australia's trails, including our own Bibbulmun Track!
