Mt Claude Nov 08

Mon 24 Nov, 2008 10:16 pm

Walked from Oliver's Road to the start of the Roland/Van Dyke track along the ridge of Mt Roland last week. Was pretty overcast and dark so the pics aren't great. Those guys who do the triple peaks challenge are way too keen. Certainly not a nice flat track. Some of the rock formations up there are really interesting, especially on the peak to the left of the fire tower.

Very nice.

I find the rock types in Tassie very interesting.
The Great Western Tiers to the South are dolarite, but this looks like conglomerate.
I presume Roland is also conglomerate. Is this a continuation of the same belt of rock that makes up the West Coast Range?

Is it the same rock type on Black Bluff?
