''This trip will be my second and my girlfriend Susan will be accompanying me one her first trip. I spent 4 days of my first trip backpacking the Rees-Dart Track and while she'd enjoy that, I think we'll end up being tourists more than trampers. I expect this to be a two week trip, but my boss has mentioned that I may be able to make it a month long trip... which would definately include some time on a track or two.''
