Hell Fire Pass

At the start of the new Hellfire Pass board walk with builder and good friend Paul Finnegan. Paul had just laid the last step edges in the morning so we were the first tourist group to walk down the path. It wasn't officially opened so we were very privileged to have this experience. Paul's two sons Mathew and Andrew, and Andrew's girlfriend were also with us but are not in this photo. Andrew has also been working on the path with Paul since the beginning. The walk way itself is really incredible, Paul and Andrew have done an incredible job (working with local teams)
