Many thanks to the Mallacoota bushwalkers for helping out on this camp!   Their generous help with transport, general advice and assistance was greatly appreciated.  They provided a car shuffle for all 17 of us, in the rain along a wet, muddy road - 14km each way! And, not to be daunted by the weather, they did another car shuffle the next day!  So very much appreciated.
