Seasons greetings to all and may santa bring you that new tent/pack/sleeping bag that you're wishing for, and may you have the good health to use it. Merry Christmas and a happy New Year.

Ditto Mark's comments. Many thanks to Nick and Adam for a great forum. I rate it as one of the best and appreciate the effort that goes behind it.
Many thanks to all those who supplied some great feedback during the year.
All the best for Xmas and may the New Year bring many more walks to enjoy or peaks to bag (and where else in the world could you do this in great abundance, other than in Tassie!)
Cheers
Andrew

Thanks guys... it's a great community effort.

Merry Christmas everyone, and I hope to hear about some great holiday bushwalks in the new year.

Anyone else going to church on Christmas day, or is that just me?

Nearly! But you were probably right about the location so I moved this one to "Between walks". Merry Christmas Drifting. :)

Merry Christmas everyone. Best wishes to all and many thanks to Nik, Adam, walkinTas and now Singe for all the hard work in keeping these forums running and enjoyable :D. I don't envy you that task but it is much appreciated.

What did santa bring everyone?

As for walks I'm heading down to Hobart later tomorrow for about 2 weeks, to wreak havoc on Tasmania again :wink:. Hoping to get a few day walks in although I still haven't decided exactly where as yet. Almost certainly around Mt Wellington area but Mt Field/southwest fringe, Hartz Mtns, Huon Valley, Bruny Isl. and Cockle Creek are other possibilities.

Santa got me John Chapman's book of daywalks in Tasmania. I'll try and fit in one or two during future quick trips to Hobart to visit family.

That's a very handy book for Tassie trips, I've had a copy for about 6 years. The little topo maps are good but sometimes I've found it wise to also get the relevant map for the area in case you get adventurous and walk off the edges of the small ones.

Bushwalking-wise got a new hiking pole, and a Wellington Park recreation map for imminent trip.
