First a big Thank You goes to Shaen Adey and Fiona McIntosh editor of the "Out There" magazine for allowing me to post this image.
We were lucky enough to meet them on the trail. Not that they provided us with some good outdoor hints, they also showed us, that one should treat themselves with good food while on the hike.
On the first night at Ngubu hut to our all surprise, Fiona pulled a lobster out of her backpack. Here at Scott Hut we were offerd to be treated with some mussels, freshly picked from the rocks.
The most important message we've got was, as Shaen later stated in her article about the Otter Trail:
"on a 42km's hike in five days there is certainly no need to rush but rahter use the time to enjoy and follow the trail and not a fashion."
....found that to be very true.
