In Episode Five, Jen talks about her Three Capes Track adventure and Elle goes over the details of The Overland Track. We chat about the landscape, the weather, the fungi, and the leeches (of course). We also go over a little bit of info around getting soaked in the rain and how to prevent and treat saturated times. 

This episode was recorded via zoom during Victoria's lockdown. Unfortunately due to the limitations of the app, you can't hear us cracking up with laughter at the same time like you normally can in our episodes. We were feeling a bit meh around publishing the episode but as we are all well aware of the weird zoom issues in our lives, we figured it would still be ok. Hope the listening experience is pleasant enough for you to give us a like on IG and a review through your preferred listening app!

We honour the First Nations people of the land we record on, the Wurundjeri and Boon Wurrung people of the Kulin Nation. We also want to acknowledge First Nations people throughout Australia and recognise their continuing connection to land, waters and culture. We like to encourage our community to understand what being an ally means and reflect on what it is to take action against systems that marginalise and oppress First Nations people.

We want to acknowledge the First Nations communities in Tasmania that suffered the attempted genocide at the hands of colonisers in 1829; where over nine different mobs who had lived in Tasmania for thousands of years were attacked and decimated despite their brave resistance. We pay our respects to the people who's lands we walked - Pydairrerme, Peerapper, Tommeginne, Pyemmairrener, Tyerrernotepanner, Lairmairrener, Toogee, Nuenonne, and Paredarerme people and acknowledge their ongoing struggle for reconciliation.
