Pros and Cons of going East or West from end of WAs
Posted: Sun 09 Dec, 2018 4:11 pm
I am contemplating a Western Arthurs trip - full traverse and wondering about the pros and cons of returning to Scotts Peak or walking out to Tahune in terms of time and mud. Obviously if the car is at Scotts Peak then a no brainer. The distance to Tahune seems a bit longer but not that much. I've only walked into Blakes Opening from Tahune but that was in 1971 doing a full E & W Arthurs traverse so have not "enjoyed" the YoYo section or the apparent mud bath of the Arthurs Plains.
