Mountaineering legend has it that Sir Edmund Hillary declared Federation Peak as Australia's only real mountain.
The Story of my Journey Hiking through rugged terrains to climb federation peak in Tasmania's South West.
The steep banks running down to Lake Leo
High In the clouds we see our first glimpse of what we are attempting to climb
A very cold morning on Goon moor, but some beautiful light and views.
Fog filling the valley floor below
Our first close look at what we were about to summit
The scary climb with over a 600m drop down to the lake below
The views from the top were unbelievable and could not have asked for better conditions.
Views down to the ocean and Barns Bluff. The bottom of Tasmania and one of the most Southern places in the world.
Happy smiles at the top after summiting what we were thought may be very impossible!
