Some time ago The Bruce Trail or a section of it became affiliated with the Bibbulmun track. This was published in the Bibbulmun news letter and we became interested and decided to research the Bruce trail with the potential to walk it. The affiliated sections of track are Donnelly River Village to Balingup on the Bibbulmun Track and a section in the Boyne Valley on the Dufferin Hi-land section of the Bruce Trail. The research came up with a book which basically had notes of the trails and the various sections with maps. We were then encouraged to go and do further research to find out if it was possible to walk the trail end-to-end and camp along the way. All the available information indicated that it would not be possible to camp along the way, although there were campsites or Official Rest Areas, the distances between these campsites was rather large and would not fit with our normal 25 km per day. We were also informed by various groups that stealth camping was discouraged as the trail goes predominantly through Private Property and in the past the property has been poorly handled and badly misused. It is therefore encouraged to stop and stay off trail along the way. To facilitate this some of the clubs run a trail angel service whereby you can arrange to be picked up at your endpoint each day and taken to an appropriate accommodation and then returned to your previous point to start the next day. This proved to be more difficult to research and to set up than everybody had indicated as some of the clubs do not have sufficient members to facilitate a trail angel service. I emailed all the various clubs to try and get information with regards to walking their sections of the track and the use of travel angels and any other information that they could give us. Sadly the response from these clubs was limited. We did however, pick up a couple of good interesting leads, We were contacted by Tom of the peninsula club section and he advised us that he was the trail captain for trail angels for their section and was willing to help us. A series of emails flowed back and forth between Tom and ourselves and we were able to ascertain from Tom the best course of action to cover the peninsulas trail section. I was then able to further research the rest of the track using Tom's information to determine the best stop points and also to find accommodation that had a shuttle service and were prepared to pick us up run us to their establishment for an overnight stay then return us to our previous point. Our plans now centred around where we would be able to get food, where we would be fed and how much food we need to carry on a daily basis and where we would be able to have our resupplies. The plan is now falling together and we gained confidence that we are going to be able to do this thing and walk the Bruce Trail end to end. Our intention was to fly to Toronto, stop there a couple of days, pick up supplies that we need to drop off on route. Then get a higher car and drive the 380 km, stopping at our chosen resupply points. Unbeknownst to us we had chosen to arrive in Canada on the labour day holiday weekend, this was going to prove difficult in getting our supplies and then subsequently moving up to the top of the peninsula and finding accommodation. All too bad because the wheels are in motion and we are ready to go do this regardless.
