Beer4Recovery Posted September 10, 2012 Share Has anyone done the Berg & Bush before?? From the lack of replies it looks like this will be a first for us all?! Well I guess you learn as you go along.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beer4Recovery Posted September 12, 2012 Share Had to ask the question on FB, since nobody on this forum seems to have done Berg and Bush before. Here is the reply with regards to packing: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grease Posted September 13, 2012 Share Great. Thanks for the tenacity there FuelEX. Anyone know how this tog bag compares in size to the container supplied at Sani? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beer4Recovery Posted September 25, 2012 Share No idea Grease! I wish people who had done this event before could share some info on this tread! Another question, do you need to provide your own mattress? And is a sleeping bag necessary? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Greg29 Posted October 1, 2012 Share Great. Thanks for the tenacity there FuelEX. Anyone know how this tog bag compares in size to the container supplied at Sani? I think you just take your own tog bag - not like Sani where you get a container. Ramrod 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Beer4Recovery Posted October 2, 2012 Share How hectic is the first day of Berg & Bush? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BushGoblin Posted October 2, 2012 Share the first isn't bad at all, just pace yourself. Also try not doing a unicycle trick and crack your ribs and bust your shoulder in the first 17km Day2, pace yourself when you get off the dam trip, it is a very long steady climb and down to climb spienkop.Day3, pace yourself at the begining, the rest is pretty easy.
