Mate if I'm down that way I'll certainly look you up.
Winter is the only time to be there in my opinion, absolutely beautiful.
I was last down there for 2 weeks 2 year ago in winter and climbed half way to the top of Cradle Mountain in jeans and singlet, till I bumped into a hiking guide and her group on their way back down and she would'nt let let me go any further alone without proper protective clothing.
Hell! it was only -6 for crying out loud
You know what they say though... no sence, no feeling.
I couldn' feel a thing..... fingers, toes, nose, arms, legs
It was awesome!
Would do it again in a heartbeat.
