A response of “Tasman National Park, probably Cape Raoul” was submitted yesterday by former member Robert Florsack. This was incorrect (by a very long distance) and the quiz continues for EFB members.

A famous Austrian-Australian Adventurer first travelled to this part of Tasmania in 1909. He built “Waldheim” on Cradle Mountain, “Where there is no time and nothing matters.” Danke, Gustav. … Nearby, there is something very closely connected to Errol’s father, a ‘tarn nice place hikers like to visit.

And the answer is …. “Flynn’s Tarn” . From “Cradle Mountain”, this very talented and courageous climber has a premier view of Flynn’s Tarn and Lake Rodway, named after Professor Flynn and his highly esteemed colleague Leonard Rodway.
