Hi,

This weekend I am considering doing "The Three Peaks".

This is a very hard walk for hard core walkers only. Starting and ending at
Katoomba, the walk is nearly 100km in length and involves well over 4000m of
vertical climbing and descending. Aiming to complete this walk in around
40-45 hours, the trip involves walking day and night, with no sleep at all
on Friday night. We may walk for up to 20 hours straight with little in the
way of rest.

Because of the exceptional nature of this trip there are some out of the
ordinary prerequisites for anyone considering coming along:

-	The walk is only open to people whom I have walked with before and
who have proven ability to complete the trip.

-	You must be familiar with the route and know how to navigate and be
self sufficient. You must be prepared to walk yourself out unaccompanied
should this become necessary.

-	Everyone on the walk goes at their own pace so you may end up
walking alone for much of the walk. By coming along you accept that we may
not stay as one group for the whole walk.

Let me know if interested.

Oh, and by the way, I will be placing an easier overnight walk that is open
to all on the program in the not too distant future.
