Tasmania Cradle Mountain Shoot

[Josh-H]

Well im off day after tommorow for a weeks shooting in and around Cradle Mountain in Tasmania.

Weather looks cold and there is plenty of snow. Here is also hoping for plenty of good light :-)

Would appreciate any last minute location reccomendations around the area if anyone has photographed there before. I have hired a 4WD w/ GPS so I can pretty much get anywhere.

I spent a week walking the Cradle Mtn-Lk St Claire Track in February.  Walking the Track is by far the best way to get to the most scenic areas but in august the track is closed.  you may be able to do a day walk from the southern end, after getting a boat across Lake St Claire.  If not snowed in you should be able to access the Dove Lake track and possibly other tracks at the base of Cradle Mtn but whether you can actually get upto the peak is doubtful.  The weather is very changeable and this winter has been cold and wet.

Good luck
