Last week I walked to a nice location in the mountains. Not a particularly spectacular spot but definitely a very pleasant one.
The day had been totally cloudless and that continued into the night with the Milky Way sparkling brightly overhead.
After the western light had faded I got my camera out and planned on doing a little astro photography. Pleasantly, my first image showed a cheery red and green glow to the south. The Southern Lights were active!
I spent a few hours capturing the spectacle as best I could and then slipped into myMont Moondance 1 FN tent for some sleep. This time I had brought myZero Superlightsleeping bag rated to 2°C. This was a marginal decision as the temperature dropped to just below zero overnight but I slept ok.
The morning was equally enchanting with perfect reflections on a nearby tarn and mist drifting lazily across the landscape, coating the spiderwebs in dew and creating beautiful lighting.
Still under a cloudless sky, I packed up and happily headed for home.
Not an especially epic location but definitely an epic stay :)

This trip into the Budawang National Park began as a mission to photograph new product releases, but beneath the brief sat a much more personal objective.

Probably the most important thing to pack though is a good amount of respect for the environment, commonsense and experience

Summer in Tasmania’s mountains presents the walker with a multitude of flowers, ranging from the prickly Richea Scoparia to the diminutive flowers of the remarkable Tasmanian Cushion Plant.
