My daughter Laura, just turned 5, made it to the TOP of MARION'S last weekend. Her bushwalking training is progressing admirably, and she is almost ready for the Walls!

PROUD parents here! :D

Congratulations Laura!
(and proud parents) :D

Any chance Laura will be available to give lessons to an inexperienced Perth walker later this year?? :?

That's a big climb for a little girl.
Keep up the training - tell her lots of stories about when you were a teenager and you were walking with your parents, you always carried their gear. Get her to believe... :)

The secret is:

Dad carries a *&%$#! big pack!

But it can be done.

Good stead for a fantastic bushwalking future, may their childhood memories be long and treasured.
Congrats to you and those like you that give them these memories.

Great greens in the photo too!

Our daughter is 3.5yo, she has an iron will and is turning out to be a great little walker. Most of the parents I know with boys are flat out getting them to walk for 5 minutes without complaining, girls must have a far more mature outlook - maybe its just the oedipus complex playing out and she wants to copy daddy!


Heading down to Girraween for the June long weekend will test out her iron will - brass monkey weather and location and some great walks to do on some awesome granite.


Go Girls!
