The website still needs a lot of work and technical cleaning up, but there is plenty to read in the mean time.
I have made a Public Blog page for comments prior, during and post walk. Please feel free to
test it out. It is my hope that whilst we are walking the Canning for 3 months, people we meet along the way might drop us a line via our website when they get back to civilisation. These post will give insight into what is happening, something we would be unable to do ourselves due to limited communications.
There is also a SPOT page which will be activated in May. It will mark our progress throughout the day. SPOT only shows the last 7 days tracking which is a shame, but better than no tracking at all.
At present I am negotiating semi sponsorships of tough 10 litre water bladders of exceptional quality by a
well known and respected brand. They are my first choice in hydration and will solve my water storage dilemma 100%. If successful, I will have all 100 bladders branded with our website address and offer the 'used-once-only' bladders as Canning souvenirs at 50% of their usual price. In this way I recoup some of my investment, solve the 'litter' problem and you get to experience the advantages of have such a useful piece of equipment.
Would Canning Travelers of 2013 be interested in purchasing a bladder should they meet us along the way? The price would be in the region of AUD35.
