[Found] SW-TAS sleeping mat

Postby icefest » Fri 20 Nov, 2015 9:37 am

I've been planning on posting this for quite some time.

Two years ago while scrambling up b to Precipitous Bluff from New River Lagoon I got benighted and was forced to camp about 100 meters below the track where it goes parallel to the cliffs.

In the morning after, during a toilet trip, another 100m downhill into the scrub a plastic bag with a blue foam mat was found.

Now I'm not sure how the mat got there but I'll be quite sure in saying it was sorely missed when it went. I'm guessing it got blown off the cliff.

I carried it out as rubbish but I feel like this could be a pretty cool story about the trip home without a mat. I'm guessing it's been there for over 10 years.
Men wanted for hazardous journey. Low wages, bitter cold, long hours of complete darkness. Safe return doubtful.
