Congratulations to our February Community Camera Lens Winner - Jarrod Less

A recent trip up Higgs track to nameless lake and back through Western Creek Trail was the perfect way to spend the January long weekend. Getting away from the crowds of more popular spots in Tasmania allowed for a sense of calm and tranquillity to start the 2026 year. Whiteleys hut perfectly encapsulates the ruggedness of the central plateau and Ironstone Mountain which the hut sits beneath!
