Recently decided to see if my ageing body would be up for the challenge of a historical walk from near Laura (Cape York) following a trail that the old miners took with their wheelbarrows, through and up to the top of the Laura escarpment country to Hell's Gate.
24 long kilometres in a day, with the last part being near vertical scramble to the top.
This one is on Indigenous land though, so appropriate permissions are required if you think you might want to give it a crack.
A link to the blog with a half-arsed video by yours truly, including sound effects that sound like I'm sucking in the big ones at the end, is below.
