A sense of achievement

Black Bluff, it's just such a beautiful area.

It's a hard climb up. I remember one time Les and I did it in winter and it was snowy and quite chilly. And just the beauty of that, you know, being out there when it's snowing, it’s quite delightful.

It's a challenge, but it gives you so much reward when you get to your goal. When you're at the top of Black Bluff and looking down over Paddys Tarn and you go, "Yeah, this is really good."

And that sense of achievement, you can't underestimate that. You don't have to have a degree. You don't have to have a lot of money. You can just do it and have that sense of achievement.

And I think that's so valuable, for everyone to feel that you can start something and actually achieve it.
