G'day,

	With only 7 days left until I leave my house for another long walk I  
have uploaded several hundred photos in Google Maps/Earth format. This  
is a result of carrying the datalogger the whole time. I'm sorry I  
haven't had time to make proper profile images of the trail for this  
year's hikers, hopefully I'll get time next winter. And I'll be in the  
northern hemisphere then so it will actually be winter and encourage  
me to be indoors more. Back to the topic..

Here is the file that will download a bunch of other files each  
covering a length of the trail. There are 18 lengths decided by when I  
could send the GPS data home.

Open that in Google Earth if you have it. If you don't have Google  
Earth you can use Google Maps instead (which only requires a web  
browser and a fast internet connection) by entering that address into  
the Google Maps search bar or by using either of these links
