Winter at Frenchmans Cap

Details Date: August 10th to 15th, 2002 Written by: Brendan , edited by Allan, member of the 1996 winter trip. The Team: Brendan, Brandon, Evan, Willie, Rosie, David, Jeremy, Samara and Maurice. Frenchmans Cap: 7 Points Sharlands Peak: 2 Points Clytemnestra: 4 Points White Needle: No Points Bulmers Bluff: No Points Philps Peak: 4 Points Introduction Revisiting one of my favorite winter destinations is one not to be missed. It would be my sixth trip to "The Cap", and apart from Maurice, the rest of the team would be making the trip for there first time. Friday 9TH, Driving from Launceston to Derwent Bridge The first car left Launceston at 5:15pm in the evening, arriving at Derwent Bridge at 7:50pm. A meal was obtained from the Wilderness Hotel with the usual gruffness but the food was reasonably good. We stayed overnight at the Derwent Bridge Chalet's - run by Murray Jessop - Where we received wonderful service. The cost per night is between $30 to $49. We slept in a doubl...

Sojurn into the Western Arthurs

I ntroduction Our indefatigable walk co-ordinator, Brendan, sent out the call to arms in February for another Tas-SAT (Tasmanian Summit Assault Team) adventure into the Tasmanian wilderness, this time to the Western Arthurs. Brief forays had been made into this area in 1997 by Bill Perry, Maurice Bulmer and Brendan, as well as by Samuel Thomson, Dave Wise, Steffan, Brendan and Maurice in 1998. With the foregoing exceptions, Tas-SAT has had little representation in this domain and, in fact, is experiencing somewhat of a slump itself with regard to participation levels, relocations and other life-changes having an impact on the availability of some regulars, probably for the long term. HOWEVER, a delegation from this illustrious organization made a fine expedition into the bush on behalf of all, which we would like to share with our compatriots here Travelling from Launceston The story actually begins on Friday, with most having to work a half day before wresting themselves away to all p...

Arm River Track to Pelion Plains and Mt Ossa

Two Senior Walkers Posted on 2006-04-06 The Approach It was a the spur of the moment - day before - decision to go. The weather forecast for the north was good. Our goal was to climb Mt Ossa and return in one day. In and out along the Arm River Track, a distance of 38 kilometers. At 7:40pm the night before, we packed and left Hobart. We drove north, non-stop, to Mole Creek. From here we followed the signs and arrived at the Arm River Track car park at about 11pm. Sleeping in the back of the station wagon we had a surprisingly good sleep under a brilliant starry night. Arm River Track to Pelion Hut Day break saw the skies clear and the temperature a cool 3°. We started walking at 7.30am. At the start, the track climbs steeply for about 40 minutes. The rest of the walk to Pelion Plains is relatively flat. The scenery and terrain is varying, making for a pleasant walk. There has been quite a bit of work done on the track. Raised long timber boards have been installed over long sec...
