He wouldn't be the first. (BTW, I have a neat picture from another SW Tassie track of a high top leather boot that was left at a campsite sans sole.

Come to Tassie for a month or more if you can. Try to spend at least five days climbing on Mt Wellington. There is a great mix of trad and sport, with fantastic views over the city and Dentrecasteaux Channel.

yeah would love to do that.....spent a month there back in 1986 but only managed a bit of climbing in Coles Bay....have been checking out thesarvo and there's plenty to whet the appetite.

Unless you know a sailor heading that way and love a bumpy ride, flying would be the best option. We hired a car easily enough from Lady Baron (the town), but you can also hire a car in downtown Whitemark. The island would be nice to ride around though.
