On this trip, we venture into Savage River National Park to try to find Atlas Creek Falls. I have been eying this waterfall of for a couple of years now and we made a half-hearted attempt about a year ago but soon gave up as the bush was very thick myrtle regrowth and it was... Continue Reading →
This was a short morning trip to find a couple of waterfalls around the Keith River Road we also came across a lot of fungi of all different shapes colours and sizes. After doing all my jobs the day before we thought we would make the most of the spare time and go and explore... Continue Reading →
With the 'Slug' still out of action we packed the Kayaks and the camping trailer up and headed to Corinna for the weekend. Day 1 So after a stinking hot day at work we where of along the Western explorer and it wasn't long before we seen some very strange weather that could only happen... Continue Reading →

Today was probably one of the more spectacular walks we have done in Tassie and it was pretty unorthodox as such as much of it was walking in a river. We started at the Julius River Reserve which is a nice spot but why it is where it is strange as downstream there are caves and... Continue Reading →

We forced ourselves out too kick the hangover and explore some more places that we... Continue Reading →
Today we went somewhere we have never been before, we started at Takone and ended up at Dip Falls and uncovered some secrets of the 'Tarkine' along the way. Heading west from West Takone into the unknown, we wanted to check out some abandon mines in the area but the floods we had earlier in... Continue Reading →
