My first overnight walk, in the Bogong High Plains, what started as a nice 15 degree just about no wind hike overnight turned into very strong winds and a hard hike back out. I videoed my wife trying to walk though the wind and may post it later. But this is the first shot of our tent, that I bought off Phillip here. Love the tent has heaps of room for both of us and never even moved a inch though all the high wind. Oh it's a Hilleberg Nammatj 2 GT if anyone was wondering

East of Cleve Cole Hut or in Camp Valley?

This was near Fitzerald Hut

Beautiful light.
You should send that picture in to Hilleberg

Yeah the light was nice, I'm hoping to get a better one in December

This was up in the Walls of Jerusalem this week, gorgeous afternoon next to Lake Myrtle and Mt Ragoona.

Views from my latest ridgeline walk.....looking across to the changing face of 'Ol Lumpy' ...Mt Barney, Qld.

[Giddy_up]

Can't pitch a tent there that's for sure. Lovely hang.......

[ofuros]

Thanks Giddy up,
There are tent sites along this rollercoaster ridgeline from Drynans Hut to Mt May , especially
in the saddles, and some have views...just not as fantastic as this one.

Gosh I miss living (and bushwalking) in Queensland. Such a beautiful view ofuros

[ofuros]

A lifetime is never going to be enough time to discover all these little hidden S.E. Qld gems.....
Thanks, Bluegum Mic.

[Lizzy]

Just don't get out of bed on the wrong side Ofuros!

[ofuros]

.....and be extra careful when you go for leak, half awake, in the middle of the dark, dark night.
Thanks Lizzy.

All great shots, the pic with the tent and bike near the river is a trout fishers dream. Looks like the top bidgee.

[kanangra]

From our recent trip to NZ. Camped on the Livingstone Range. The tent is a Big Agnes something or other. Just big enough for the two of us but no room for our gear which stayed outside in a plastic pack liner.

Here's another one. This time of a tarp set up. Taken on a short walk into Ten Mile Hollow over Easter.

Great pixs all. Just wondering those camping in the snow what sleeping bags do u use and how warm do they keep u. Thanks

[Mitchc]

first of all very new to all of this as well but here are a few of my pictures.




Set up in Qld (forget exact location) a little tester for mine, and the girlfriends hammock

Second wasn't so much of a 'hiking' trip. Photos' were taken out on a private property hunting in northern NSW. It was a shame the river had dried up a few weeks before I arrived, it would have been spectacular.







I think a decent little camera needs to be added to my ever growing list...

[nickthetasmaniac]

Some of the bivvy sites I found on the HRP. The Soulo proved to be a pretty amazing companion for this trip


Ibòn del Escalar


Lac d'Arrious


Port de la Peyre-Saint-Martin


Oulettes de Gaube, in front of the north-face of the Vignemale


Lac du Portillon


Plan d'Aiguallut


Estany Romedo de Dalt


Estanys de Baiau

[tibboh]

Wow

[nickthetasmaniac]

And a local one with the new Nammatj. Lake Myrtle is probably one of my favourite Tassie spots

[stepbystep]

Yep. Wow Nick. Beautiful shots, thanks for putting them up

This ones a bit different. This is what a Scarp1 looks like as it's getting pummeled by wind gusts up to 100kph. It survived all night under these conditions and was jammed into a pack the next day in a hail storm. Happy days!!

[icefest]

jees, sbs, that's incredible.

Beautiful shot nick!

[GPSGuided]

The standard here is getting out of control! SBS, I didn't know the Scarp1 had round corners, looking like a Mongolian yurt. LOL

[stepbystep]

Haha... I really need to write up a trip report. The fellow that took this shot(I was inside holding the yurt together) had his tent rip and spent the night inside my yurt helping to hold it together. The gusts would go under the tent and lift our legs off the ground. Kudos to the yurt er I mean Scarp...

[nickthetasmaniac]

Awefully tempted by one of those Scarps when it comes time to replace the Soulo

[neilmny]

Hey Nick, what's with the rock ring around the tent at Lac du Portillon or do they just have very big fire rings in that country.

Must be the land of giants. They are ready to start their bonfire and dinner. I think Jack was there earlier.

Hey Nick, what's with the rock ring around the tent at Lac du Portillon or do they just have very big fire rings in that country.

Just something they do in those parts I'm assuming as a weather shield, although it wasn't very effective...

[horsecat]

This is what my tent looked like after a landslide
