Bushwalking Proper.

1. A compass doesn't do much good if you don't have a proper map. 2. Sometimes, the sign posts are robbed of their signs. Why? I don't know. But because they're sometimes missing, a proper map is very handy. 3. If you plan on going proper bushwalking, wear long socks that cover your shins. You'll be scratched to bits if you don't (I'm living proof). 4. If you want a good walking stick, find some grass trees (they look like big fountains of grass with a big stick growing out of the middle - we saw some that were 2 metres high). The sticks from the grass trees eventually break off and they make very sturdy walking sticks. 5. Tip for hiking the Glass House Mountains: Try to avoid wearing very breathable running shoes because the sand on the trails goes right through the mesh and you'll want to stop every once in a while to dump it all out.
