Overland Track

On the 16th of May, six ladies from St Mary's College and three awesome teachers started the Overland Track. It took us 5 days to do a 60 km walk through beautiful Tasmanian midlands. Every person carried about 17 kg backpack which contained all stuff for 5 days, from tents to blister tapes... It wasn't an easy trip, we were lucky to have one day without rain, and spent 5 days with the wet gear on, including our boots. We walked through bush tracks, rocks, duckboards, small creeks. After we finished the track we all had a sense of achievement and became very close as a group, we became Overlanders. We were sooo happy to eat fresh vegetables, sleep in a warm bed, and best of all, to have a shower. We quickly got back into our real lives with school work and other activities but we will always remember this trip which made us more confident, independent and stronger.
