I decided to go hiking and camping for a week around the Franklin-Gordon national park in Tasmania 2 months ago. While camping and enjoying the great outdoors is a popular past time in Tasmania almost everyone I know reckons I'm a complete lunatic for doing so for a couple of reasons
1. Camping season is just starting as the weather is just starting to warm up.
2. Since I am camping out of season, I will be on my own and completely alone in the wilderness for a week.
3. It is about a 1-2 drive to get any phone signal and The closest town is about a 2-3 hours drive.
I'm not an adrenaline junkie or a hardcore bushman, I do not have a death wish and I am not suicidal (well only in the mornings), but always wanted to camp around Tasmania and a series of events presented me with the opportunity to do so, so I decided to go for it.
I just got around looking at the photos from my camera. I didn't get to take any shots from my camp site as it rained all the time, and there's nothing much to shoot around the campsite other than trees, bush, and more trees. I also found that I didn't have a lot of time, chop wood - drag to camp - do something about food - evening - sleep. Night time always came fast.
I just took some photos of Lavender farm, some photos along the Huon river and on top of Mount Wellington in Hobart.
