Only downside was the flies . They were relentless . So, recommend to others to go a bit later in the year , eg June or July . Nights were cold but days were beautiful

Trip should be graded moderate to hard not introductory to moderate. Mt Sonder & Counts Point in particular are more challanging. Hired sleeping bag was dirty, Tents didnt always have polls & not really large enought for 2 swags.

Guides where fabulous, very knowledgable & skilful management. Camping at Finke River is a real highlight - please retain it. Happy to follow guides recommendation that it was too hot to walk the Ormiston (lack of fitness from some may have precluded this)

The leadership provided by Darby was excellent. Would be good for the leader to give a detailed overview of the Environmental procedures at the start of the tour. All the guides were good.
