The Long Tarns
This story was written to accompany a new online exhibition of photos, themed along our encounters with ice. Many of the pictures were taken at Long Tarns where this story is centred, although the story explores more personal encounters with the landscape and its Palawa past.
Celebrating waterfalls
Waterfalls are a central part of our adventuring - sometimes they are our destination; sometimes we come across them unexpectedly. This story explores the beauty, wonder and diversity of waterfalls in Australia; bringing to life one of nature’s most loved and sought after features.

Redbank Gorge
A few months ago we paddled into a mountain - one of our shortest and most accessible adventures yet. But also, one of our most extraordinary. Redbank Gorge in the amazing Tjoritja National Park in the Northern Territory.
