It turns out that the last time I did the West Coast Trail, it was dry. This time around there was an ungodly amount of mud, including 11km of straight mud pits between Bonilla and Camper Bay. Afraid of heights? Fear no more. The mud will make you weep with joy at the sight of the suspension bridge and ladders. This trail is best navigated with questionable sanity and a good sense of humour.
