Larapinta Trek

Dave went a trekking for a mightily good cause - Dave was accompanied by Elinor Crossing who Trekked Larapinta to raise funds for the Eye Foundation . Looks like once again Dave had the best seat in the house - the photo's from the Trek are truly magnificent.

Elinor and nine other inspiring Australians have raised close to $70,000 for indigenous eye health by undertaking a five day trek along the famous Larapinta Trail. The adventure was the culmination of months of training and fundraising by the trekkers who signed up to undertake this life-changing challenge in support of the Eye Foundation and its indigenous eye health projects.
Here is a photo essay of this amazing journey.
