    Weekend kilted hike

    We camped overnight, testing out a new tent, then did a climb I've been wanting to do for 20 years.

    Here is a full view of Mount Roland, northern Tassie



    Start of the walk, nice and fresh (not for long)


    Not far from the summit.


    Finally made it, three and a half hours later, and what a view in all directions.

    Kilts belong on hikers! Hikers belong in kilts!

    no truer words were spoken Andrew, in fact, even on this remote mountain I found one lady that told me how good a kilt is for hiking (but I already knew that)

    David, this tent won't test a marriage, it's really quick to erect, check it out
