Memorial at the Kokoda plateau-
At the village of Deniki, looking down over the Kokoda airstrip-
Some of the incredible jungle we passed through on our way from Deniki to Isurava-
The memorial at Isurava where we held a dawn service. The scene of one of the most important battles of the Kokoda campaign-
Challenge no.1 - to have our photo taken next to the column which meant the most to me-
One rather steep hill & one rather scary river crossing on the way from Deniki to Abuari-
It was rather cosy inside my one (wo)man tent-
An example of the mud we trekked through from time to time. This photo was taken near the Kokoda Gap-
My shoes after 1.5 hours of walking through that sort of mud-
The view from my tent at Myola-
An honour - meeting Orovu Idiki, one of the last surviving 'fuzzy wuzzy' angels-
Taken from Ioribawa shows Imita Ridge in the far left of the photo - a loooong way up!
Meeting challenge no.2 - arriving at the top of Imita Ridge (a 50min climb) without stopping-
Arriving, with a smile, at our last campsite-
A rather cool river crossing makes for an interesting start to our final day-
Made it!
Bomana War Cemetery outside Port Moresby. The resting place of over 3,000 Australians who died in PNG in WWII-
Lest we forget-
