Last Saturday, two Swedish girls and I had a great time climbing Dove. We had been put off by the weather, and postponed Dove until Monday, but thought we should climb something, so set off up Amos. On top we had a hail storm, but then the weather cleared a bit, so we decided to at least suss out our route for Monday as far as the saddle. Once there, we all had summit fever, so despite the late hour and the possibility of further bad weather, we moved on upwards, knowing that if things deteriorated, we could back out and do it on Monday, as planned.
This is a fabulous climb: we loved the challenge of working out our own route and then putting the plan into action. There was great excitement at the top. This was the Swedes' first mountain. They adored the view, of course.

The next day, we camped on Graham, and climbed Freycinet. A great introduction to Tasmania!
