I have used the tassieline service a number of times and found it good, reliable - but it is fairly expensive at about $78 each way. They travel out (and back) three days a week - Tuesdays, Thursdays and Saturdays leaving Hobart at 8 am and arriving at Huon Camp at Scotts Peak Dam at about 11:30am. This gives you enough time to walk to Junction Ck for a late lunch, then to the base of Moraine A. If weather permits - climb Moraine A. There is some exposed camping on top (and if you look around - also a some sheltered sites) - but most parties would proceed on to Lake Cygnus. There is good, sheltered camping at Junction Ck. The campsite at the base of Moraine A is still useable - but was burnt out by a bushfire last summer - and so is not as attractive.
