Ferreting about in the archives of the very first Doodlecat, I have just come across this gem by ‘Big John’ Hutchinson. Having covered some of the country he describes, I became more and more aware of just how tough this crossing was – especially given the weather.
“After so many miles of ‘paddling’, my feet looked like tripe and my boots were beginning to look much the same.”
Looking for a route for next year? Well, you could have a bit of fun figuring out John’s route sheet and giving it a go. 😉
