Transport from Lake St. Clair to Cradle on 15th April

Postby Explorer_Sam » Sun 12 Mar, 2017 9:55 pm

G'day everyone,

Finally doing the Overland Track with the old man next month and we're looking for a ride from Lake St. Clair to Cradle Mountain on the 15th April (Easter Saturday). If you or anyone you know is planning to walk the OLT around this time, we could organise a car shuffle. Note that we could only provide the car shuffle for up to 2 people (small car).

Otherwise, if anyone is heading up in the Cradle direction on the 15th and would be kind enough to help us out, that would be most appreciated. We will pay the full petrol cost.

Thanks,
Sam.

I'm heading up there on the 14th of April from Launceston by car and getting picked up. Is there a way for you to make it work on this date?

Hey Sam,

My mate and I are starting the track on the 16th and staying in Cradle Mountain on the night of the 15th. We were originally also planning on renting a car and leaving it at St. Clair visitor centre. We are planning on finishing up on the 20th - not sure how that would work for you to organise a shuffle?

Otherwise we could look at splitting the cost of a private transfer from Lake St. Clair to Cradle Mountain and both leave our cars there.

Cheers,
Nick

Hey Sam,

A quick update, I have booked a private transfer for the 15th at 4pm. You guys would be more than welcome as it would bring the price down for us too! We will be stopping at a supermarket on the way up to Cradle Mountain.

Let me know if you would like to get involved.

Cheers,
Nick
