Standing Beneath Tasmania's Most Elusive Waterfall

- In this series I set out to follow the 100 km route through Tasmanian South-West Wilderness that Sir John Franklin and his party traversed in 1842.
This expedition was of great historic importance to Tasmania and led to the naming of name streams, mountains and plains. After careful research I realised that while some of these features still remain, some are misplaced, and some have been simply lost to time.
This route was partly covered by a group of 6 from the Hobart Walking Club in 1953, using the Frenchmans Cap Walking Track they began their walk about 30km West of where the Franklins had started.
In this series I cover the whole length over a period of 9 days, starting at Lake St Clair and finishing at the Gordon River.
The episodes will each be 25 minutes long, and I am expecting to have 8 episodes released twice weekly, one every Wednesday and one every Sunday at 7:30PM AEST.

Maybe do something like the one and only original Tom Cruse the Tasmanian Tom Cruse, not that other one...Pete from Devonport.... 🤠✌
I'm sure I'm not the only one who can say this but I am absolutely swept along by this series. We are right there with you, Rob and I find myself caught up in the emotion of the effort and the experience you are giving us. That part of Tassie is awe inspiring and its an honour to be taken along on this adventure. Thank you, so much.
Thats so great to hear thank you. I am so stoked with how much everyone has enjoyed this series. From nothing but an idea in my head to a reality thats gone beyond my every expectation. Truely blessed, cheers.
All I could see was that little leach making it’s way towards your neck.
Tassie has some of the most magnificent landscape.
Rob that leech hopping towards your chin in the tent was killing us LoL, loved every minute of it mate.
With heart of fearlessness and strength and clarity of mind, our brave adventurer marches on...
You have lived more life in these trips, than most people do in a whole life. Well done.
Watching you carry a raft and paddle in one hand and the camera in the other while walking across mossy rocks.... so we could be there too. Nuts! Thanks Rob😅
Epic man. I always look forward to the next of your videos. This one didn’t disappoint. I especially like the leech that was heading for you at 18mins 😂
It's become an addiction watching these, just as I'm sure your addiction is in documenting our state. Hopefully you get the recognition sooner than later. Whatever happens, your future kids are gonna be proud of their dad and his adventures! 🔮👍

Great series well done. Tassie bush has teeth. Not to be underestimated.
Wow! Amazing country, thanks for sharing with us. And those leeches, man, there's so many.
A century ago Robert Frost stood before a road diverging in a wood and in The Road Not Taken reminded us in 100 words of the magic of seeking out new adventures ending "I took the road less travelled by and that made all the difference" . Thanks Rob for showing us the same magic on a road only once travelled from Lake St Clair. Just magic !
What can I say that’s not already been said? Another breathtaking video Rob. Thank you for the journey 💜
Loving every second of your channel.
Can't get enough of your adventures.

18:00 watching that leech crawl up your collar was so stressful.
Brilliant videos though, love the effort you put in.
Came to the comments to see im not the only one lol...
The leech!!! Thank you so much for taking us along on this epic adventure.
Just keeps getting better and better Rob. Absolutely amazing job.
unbelievable beautifull. Tasmania on my bucket list.
Perfection ...just pure perfection.
I've truly loved this adventure , what an amazing trip
That primordial forest and then the amazing beauty of the Jane river was unreal thanks Rob for sharing this with us mere mortals
So close to end, still not letting up, this is awesome.
You'll be one of only a few people alive to have stood on that White Hill Plains high point. Loved the lucky pop hole onto the river. That section of the Jane is one of the most beautiful pieces of river on this earth - lovely work.
I salute you Rob, just wonderful and I can enjoy it due to your efforts. Thank you sincerely.
So happy for you man. I’m from Stanley but financial hardship forces to live in bloody Melbourne. I get so emotional ”in a good way” when I see footage of my home state. Thanx.
You should be bloody proud of your efforts Rob. Even after 6 or 7 days solo, your motivation to film, commentate and document the journey is amazing! Thanks heaps for sharing with all of us mate 🙏🏼
Amazing the distinctive changes in the undergrowth as you descended into Jane
Some beautiful Tassie bush Rob👍
Your videos bring back such wonderful memories for me of some 35 years ago when I was much younger and fitter and able to walk through our beautiful state. I can almost smell it and living vicariously through your videos brings me joy so thank you so much Rob ❤
Nothing but fantastic! You and Levi have the best hobby, your lucky fellas doing what you do. 👍🏻
Another stunning episode Rob! ----- The journey, history and the vid are tops!
I reckon Olegas would be pretty proud of your efforts 👌 🙏
Well done! Thank you so much for sharing this with us Rob. I really enjoying watching your hard earned adventures.

Hey Rob hope you are well , mate I can't express how much effort you put in to your journeys, please stay safe ! You are a true an adventurous person. Thank you so much for the beautiful scenery in your filming . They say that parts of tassie are impenetrable, but you my friend are like a bulldozer. Great work 👏 take care once again. Cheers 🍻
The wet & the leaches (& let's not forget the camera!!) must have made it extra tough - amazing trek - Awesome Adventure, Rob.
Wow! Incredible adventure Rob, thank you for sharing with us. Such amazing wilderness.
Fantastic scenery and great video Rob...Tasmania is hard to beat..
Wow! A lot of brush to go through once again. Hope it gets better for you❤️
Amazing scenery Rob. Those Huon pines were almost fluorescent
An epic adventure. Thanks for all your efforts, thoroughly enjoying this and all your other series🏆
Looks miserably wet. Huge effort Rob!
Mate only recently found your channel and im amazed at the quality of your vids, ur gon get massive mate
Jawdroppingly gobsmacking scenery....complete contrast to the historical record
Epic Rob we are lucky to live in this place 💪
That was fantastic mate...👍👍👌👌
a cool video keep up the great content.. Thank you…
I, thank you Rob, Tas is the best , and no better to see it is with you , you've got this 👏👏👏👏
So i see the terrain you hike and hardcore as it is it makes me wish l wasn't old and riddled with arthritis but when l saw the wet and cold you went through in this video with the leech climbing your collar to your neck as you sat in tent talking to the camera it sort of made me feel glad l am old and riddled with arthritis.
What a journey! Appreciate the hard work that goes into producing this quality upload. 🙏
This episode is next level Bro!!
Awesome scenery of creek and of the Jane!
The rapids would have been fun.😬
Great Vid man!! 👍🏾👍🏾👍🏾👍🏾
Thanks stu
Such a great series! We have absolutely loved it. Thank you so much for sharing. OMG watching that leech creep towards your face in the tent in the morning 🤢🤮I hate leeches
It's journeys like yours that invoke memories of our own past adventures and give feelings of our accomplishments. Crossing a knife edge in a fog @ 5000' or my first 100' rock face repel.
You have that special ability.
Thanks for sharing, epic adventure Rob, what a great job you did pushing through
Wow, Rob, you have taken us on an amazing adventure so far. I know the feeling of having wet clothes on you and knowing you still have some ways to go. I can't wait until the next episode in the footsteps of the Franklin's.....🤠✌....Pete from Devonport
18M:03S you made me yawn too!
What a totally magical place.
Nice little leach coming in for a kiss and cuddle on that rainy morning scene almost made it to your nose 😬
Beautiful scenery 💚
This trip has been an epic, Rob - what a gutsy effort to tackle it, let alone by yourself. Rafting down the Jane reminded me of the half dozen trips I did down the Franklin in the late eighties, early nineties. Beautiful countryside...
Awesome episode Rob. That little pack raft is as tough as an old boot. It's awesome
It was until a rat chewed it on my last night on the Gordon River! I have since repaired it hopefully its still tough!
Incredible forest!! I'd have reached up to brush past that huon pine too. Idk how you still had the energy to though ☺🙌
Wonderful trek, really enjoying the history and landscape, thanks so much for all your efforts in sharing this with us 👏👏
Again another amazing episode!! Thank you so much for your hard work!!!
when your older and super duper famous remember I am your number one fan!!!! I don't want this series to end! I've been reading the explorers of Western tasmania and I reckon you will be the next they write about!! woohoo!!❤
@@Mark-rc4wz OMG!! YES!! My goodness gracious me, this is my dream adventure!! I'm obsessed with Pearce..
Best. Day. Ever!!!
@@Mark-rc4wz lol, hell no!! 🤣
Thanks!
Brilliant video once again,Rob. What an amazing journey
OMG, Rob. What an amazing journey through some of the most dense and inhospitable country I have ever seen in my life. How did you survive such an epic journey mate? Simply incredible.
The leech coming into attack in the morning!
Ive been so looking forward to this....
Great stuff man
You can have those leechs.... 😂 Stunning spot where you dropped in on the packy.
Epic Tasmanian adventure time!
That first view of the Jane, OMG relief! Nice little entry point in the overhang too!
As a Canadian, I would have to stop and fish the Jane before moving on
The Salty Sage makes a return ...... and yes too much time on my hands .....
ruclips.net/video/nmSTv-Gi7RU/видео.html
Awesome mangsy
thanks T!
7:13 looks like it's from another era. WOW
EPIC ADVENTURE!! Also loved the music with the Jane!!
Thanks man!
18:04 the leech climbing up to your face inside the tent 😬
Putting on wet clothes is so demoralising. Did you realise you had a leechy friend wishing you good morning when you were waking up at the 18min mark? Can’t wait for the next episode!
Epic Rob
yay I got the 500th like in. well done again Rob.
Absolutely legendary, if you had a camera on you head non stop recording, I could still watch it from start to finish. Thank you, Absolutely mesmerised, I hate it when it gets to the of each episode due to the fact that have to come back to my reality... when you finally finish this series I am going to sit back and watch it again from start to finish. Thank you oh! Thank you Rob.
