I just finished a 3.205km hiking that lasted about 1hh:34mm:8ss !
Even in the middle of winter we get some awesome days, full on sun with no wind. Once again I get my grandson for the day and asked him what he would like to do on such a day as this. He wants to add to his stick collection, which means lets go bush and grab some sticks his mother always throws away because they make a mess. How could I refuse!
In my sports bag:-
- compass
- topo map
- first aid kit
- mobile phone
- 1ltr water bottle
- assortment of fruit
- extra layer clothing (for me and grandson)
Grandsons school bag:-
- large bag of Doritos!
I actually took him onto a steeper part of the track, which he enjoyed for like 20 mins LoL, then it became a struggle. As always, going down was fun. We got home and I asked him "where's your sticks ?" he replied "in a secret place mum doesn't know".
Mums know everything!

LOL! That sounds like a perfect reason to go for a hike! Love it! Love seeing the contents of the backpacks too! 😂
I'm lucky I have grandchildren who don't mind going outdoors once in a while, alas they grow up too fast :-)
This is the first activity you've shared in this distance range! Post a few more, and we'll have some historic data to compare with! Keep getting EXHAUSTED!
