    Relaxing with this video before my upcoming nightshift. Tasmania looks very much like here in Norway landscape-wise. Fascinating to listen to an open-minded tasmanian motorcyclist from "down-under". Your reflections and thoughts about motorcycling closely resemble my own. Fascinating and refreshing ;-)

    Great ride in to Queenstown , my history is from Northern Ontario , most my family worked hard rock mining ( nickel , copper , silver and uranium ) I spent about 5 years off and on working mines ( in the 1970's) both surface and underground . The landscape around Queenstown is typical to any area that's been worked for decades ( 60 years and older ) . The whole industry is changing here in Canada and the environment takes the lead . My home area of Sudbury is slowly coming back . You really starting to hit your stride on film and production ! Look forward to more on Queenstown and Tasmania ! Keep riding ! Thx Mel

      Hi Mel. Thankyou so much for sharing so much about your life in mining. I agree with you. Mining does seem to leave a scar on the environment which isn't exactly responsible of us. Hopefully nowadays we are a little more careful with resource management. Yep, I'm getting more streamlined with the audio/video equipment. Learning on the job.😉

    One of the things I love about going off road or down country lanes in Australia are the fresh smells of the trees and fruit farms and the sea near where I live in Queensland. In a car you usually have the aircon on with the windows closed. You really miss the essence of the countryside your driving around. The pockets of cool air then warm again with the pine tree's smelling amazing. Even when there has been a bit of a burn going on. It just makes the biggest difference.

    • @HerMotorcycleAdventures

      It's an amazing sight when you get caught in the snow down there. White everywhere! Just watch for black ice. It'd make motorcycle riding mighty challenging at that time of the year. I hit some down there in a car once. Literally spun the car 360 degrees!😉

    Tullah was an old Hydro town while they were building the various dams in the region for hydro electricity generation.
    As to the barren hills around Queenstown it actually was due to the combined actions of clearfelling the trees to feed the copper smelters and importantly due to impact of sulphurous (SO2) emissions. The acid rain basically killed off the rest of the vegetation as well as residual tree cover. Even after the emissions from smelting had ceased the people’s of Queenstown used to go up into the hills and try and remove any emerging vegetation trying to establish as they liked the “unique” look of the denuded hills. Thankfully, this practice has stopped.

    Queens town looks a delightful old historic mining town, but as you touched on it caused severe devastation mining Copper ore, and for the communities who lived there, and the blot on the landscape, and the effect it had on wildlife and it's waterways was considerable, with Sulphuric acid being the main pollutant, it made people very sick indeed, which I suppose you will uncover over the coming week you are going to spend their. One question how did the town get it's name. Thanks' for the journey so far it's been stunning..
