Hope you all enjoyed this one, still pinching myself that I was fortunate enough to see a platypus up that close! As I pointed out in the end of the vid this was actually one of two hikes that I did during this trip to Tassie. Next upload should be in 1-2 weeks where I hike the Freycinet Circuit - My expectations weren't too high for this but boy was I wrong. This one was easily right up there with some of the best hiking I've done, so I can't wait to show it off and start the edit. Thanks again to all of you for watching

Nice one Josh, I did an overnighter into WoJ March 2021. Arrived WILD DOG Camp bout 6pm Twas near full on platforms, ( some designated for Tours groups ) Some Possums Savaged several of us campers thru the night. Clawed & ripped my tent wall obviously smelling food. Beaten back with my shoe to curtail his persistence, Even someone’s food bag dangling off a tree branch. Pesky Lil creatures. Highly Recommend this hike !

Going to spend 4 days in there as we want sunrise and Astro shots and may not get the conditions over a shorter stay. Get yourself into the Western Arthurs, now there is a challenge.

I rekon I’ll drag a mate along for that one too as I’ve heard it can be pretty sketchy

Great video, I've been in Tassy for 16 years now, still love the forests. One thing about Tassy, always be prepared for the cold. Weather can and does change very quickly. It is not unusual to get snow mid summer in the high lands. I all works on wind direction and speed. If you get a southerly it will be cold regardless.
@JoshCarrHikes
@JoshCarrHikes 3 жыл бұрын
Absolutely, I always pack warm clothing with me when I head to Tassie! Kind of glad I’ve snagged decent weather each time I’ve been but also not. I’ve only seen snow once before so would be a ripper experience if it were to happen, albeit a cold one.

@@JoshCarrHikes yeah snow is a hard one to predict, lots of variables. Wind direction, wind speed, moisture content etc. And it will also snow on some mountains and not others. Cradle mountain is a top spot to be when its snowing, unless you are in a tent. But you also get times when you can't get in or out, unless you have a 4wd with chains.

It is steep if you’re only going for a short period. Personally I did the 2 year pass for unlimited access to any National park in Tas for $115. You can choose individual national parks though, which just having a look now, would set you back $46. Might be the cheapest option for you if you’re just doing the WOJ?
