Wild West of Tasmania

A "Forest Experience" at Dismal Swamp. The "Edge of the World" at the mouth of the Arthur River. The Corinna Road and a cruise on the Pieman River down to the heads. A detour to Granville Harbour.

I had been told that the Corinna Road was "boring" or "long and lonely" but it wasn't lonely (we passed at least four vehicles) and it keeps the driver too busy to be bored. There would be more pictures from along this road, but this is where we had some genuine west-coast Tasmanian weather ("pissing down") which made getting out of a warm car to take pictures unrewarding.
