@warwickpeople5140 I think that's why it's one of the best sections of the OT - less travelled by most. So perhaps less spoilt. A Tassie gem. Thanks for watching.

@jjexplore9678, yeah, it's been a while between drinks, eh? Thanks for watching 👍

@RaiderDefenseGroup yes absolutely. I've done plenty of 5-8 day hikes and they are comfy as. Mine are still going strong after several years, and I highly recommend them.

Thanks man! havent got an answear for a while so thanks i really appreciate it!@@two_in_tasmania

They're perfect for this kind of expedition. 😊

Nah, I haven't booked. I did look at available spots last week out of interest, but will probably give it a miss this season. Work ... life ... you know how it is.

At the time, I did not have any reception. But I'm with Optus, so it's not the best coverage from them to start with. Might be different now ... maybe ...

Yep Steve, my videos do tend to go on and on ... and on ... 🤭 Different from the 2 minute crowd. But thanks for watching 👍

Yeah, it's well worth a look Anthony. 👍

WP, yeah, I normally hike with poles as well. But figured it was just a short day walk, so left them in my pack this time. Thanks for watching 👍

Yeah I reckon Stu. Nothing fazed this little guy, just cruising along.

WP, yeah I had a cracker of a day. One of those few and far between days up at Cradle. Rainy days are still good though, you get different vibes and views to what I had.

Swatius1, if you haven't been, absolutely get there if you can. The views, and wombats, are something else. Thanks for watching.

It's hard to resist these little guys, but you have to keep your distance. No touching. Cutest animal in Tassie I reckon.

Glad you enjoyed it

Yep, Marions Lookout gets the lungs pumping no matter which track you take to get up. 👍

Hope you enjoy it!👍

Thanks for watching O&A. Yeah, we are still out & about, just a bit behind with the video uploads. Life gets in the way sometimes ...

@@two_in_tasmania 🙂

dhingus6699, my Scarpa's have held up really well. Tassie environment has thrown everything at them and externally I have no issues or leaks. Internally the lining is getting a bit worn around the ankle area, but for the age still is good shape.

Awesome Good to hear. Yea I ended up getting a pair. And am in the process of breaking them in. The only thing that I've found so far is that on wet surfaces they slip too much for comfort. Wearing a pack this could be a real issue, on a wet log or something. Losing your footing under load could be nasty.

Mali, yeah the internal lining is starting to wear a little in mine as well. but nothing drastic. Still in good shape externally as well.

Simon, nope. I haven't applied for an OT pass this year. Though I'm still looking to volunteer again ( future video coming of OT Volunteer we did last year ).

Yeah if you pick your day correctly, the views are amazing from the top of this one.

CJ, I'm in I.T. Which was the main reason we were able to move interstate - I was able to bring my job with me.

Yeah, we did. From Trappers Hut there is only one track back to the start of the hike. But above Trappers Hut there are a couple different routes to take. We just went in and came back on the same track - the main track.

Yeah, they both get the blood pumping, eh ? You are rewarded for the efforts though ...

Yeah, cool. That's something to look forward to. By that time, there will be a new big hut at Windemere and maybe even Kia Ora. Both of these are under construction now, so the whole track will have big comfy huts. I've just come back from the OT again and did the full walk, so consider walking out the final day rather than the ferry. Such a beautiful walk along the lake's edge. Thanks for watching.

Definately worth a look. It's a steep pinch to get up about 15 mins into the walk, but once up on the top of the zig-zags, it's such a beautiful walk.

2Cray, this was in the middle of August after a real cold snap. Super, super cold. But such a beautiful place, especially when it's snowing.

Hi Maria, there are so many options, and all provide you with special views. This time of year brings no concern regardless of the track you take. As it's been very dry and warm of late. Go up one track and come down on another. Hope you enjoy your walk.

That depends on the destination Mannie. Marions is probably slightly easier as the chain section is 3 short easy parts. Hanson's chains are a lot longer and steeper requiring more pulling yourself up. But probably less people up Hansons, as most day trippers go up for their short dash to Marions and back.

@@two_in_tasmania destination is return back to the carpark near Dove Lake boatshed. So it looks like it's Marion's Lookout for me. The view from Hanson's peak looks a little more spectacular to me.

Gremlin, our best tip would be to downsize as much as you can. Removalists charge a.l.o.t., so the less you need to shift the cheaper it will be. And be very specific with the removalists - make them aware of everything that needs to be taken with a detailed list so they are aware, as they'll try to gouge more money out of you if you have large or odd sized items ( for us it was our kayaks - even though we mentioned it previously to them, so get it in writing ). If you cant fit everything in to you own car, there is no escaping the fact it will be a hassle and stressful. But accept that, and all the effort will be worth it once the move is done. So worth it. Good luck.

Yep, we sure can Colin. Things would be very different if we had to travel interstate to do the OT, so we consider ourselves very lucky. Thanks for watching.

Yeah, I sure have Nutrino75. Looking to upgrade my Gopro to the latest model as soon as I can :)

@geoffson2wheels , wow. Frog Flats packs a punch eh? We met a guy at New Pelion who did his ankle at Frog Flats and was airlifted out as well. That was 2 years to the day of our mis-adventure. Thanks for watching.

Yeah Amy, we'll get back to Arm River and complete it. Such a beautiful walk - even just as far as Mt Pillinger where we were got up to. Part 4 is coming :) Thanks for watching.

Terry, you must have a better stomach than me. Perhaps I've just been using them for a little too long, as they have become unpalatable to me now. But yeah, they are so convenient. Thanks for watching.

Great tip Richard. Thank you. We'll keep that in mind next time around on this track. And I love those sneeky little huts that are 'out there' for discovery.

Richard, we have been to the trail head many times and it has so many different faces. We've seen it with water much higher than our crossing day, and other times with nothing at all. Pot luck I guess and time of year. Thanks for watching.

@@two_in_tasmania I'll be there next Friday :) hoping the water level isn't too bad!

Definately Karen. One day we'll do it in that direction. I'd love to do it in the snow as well to get the views from the opposite angle. Thanks for watching.

Coffee, that top section ( particularly on the east side ) can have deep drop off's, so that was probably a good call in my eyes. That would have been pretty spectacular though in the snow. Thanks for watching.

@DaveDiesel, around 21kg'ish for me and maybe a touch more for the misses. Thanks for watching 👍

Nah, not miserable at all. Fantastic to get out there and get absolutely battered by Mother Nature. Couldn't show the worst of it when it started turning ugly. Good for the experience bank.

Angie, that's a bummer for you guys, but Tassie is going nowehere. We'll be here when all the doom and gloom is over ! And with a slightly reduced number of footprints, we might even be in better shape for your return. Thanks for watching.

Yeah, Cradle is that kind of place, isn't it ? Is is so easy to lose track time of time in such a magical environment. Thanks for watching.
