Finding a crossbow in the farmhouse bathroom of the place we were staying, we made extra careful that we didn’t leave anything lying around after that.

The dog at the same campsite that was incredibly friendly and also very good at jumping fence gates, as we found out when we were cooking on the evening of arrival.

My tent mate sleeping in a nearby shower block because and I quote “It’s cleaner than that tent”, he was very grumpy the next day and I had a lovely amount of space in the tent to myself

Our lovely co-ordinator and her great border collies. Seeing them at the end of each day made it a little easier.

The constant map changes that had to be made as the routes had often been changed since the map was serviced. One route didn’t exist at all and we had to backtrack through the mountains, not the best day I’ll admit.

The comedic phrase, “it’s only 1km” when none of us can apparently judge distance correctly as it was still another 2hours walk!

Figuring out that I can put insta golden syrup porridge into plastic baggies to make it sooo much easier to carry. And my cup was a convenient water measure.

The worst worst meal to ever be eaten throughout any of the expeditions was cold all day breakfast out of a ration bag, up a mountain on the last day with monsoon like rain hammering down.

End note from all the expeditions is that they were incredible, I do it again in a heartbeat and each and every person I undertook it with, i’d do so with again. Next time though I’m packing a spare sock so that Felix can’t talk in his sleep anymore.
