Pieman River is the Promised land. Been travelling there since 1970. Thank you to my dad for taking us there and having a shack.

Rob you are one of the rare, consistent talents on KZread, we appreciate you, your insight and your island state so much :)

No matter how successful or unsuccessful your trip is, every single upload is entertaining from start to finish! Amazing again Rob 💪🏽

Another cracking upload. Love it when you start the vid reading history. Many thanks for the adventure. 🙏

Love the historic aspect of your vids, Mate....

One of the 455 here 🙋🏻‍♀️. Love your work, Rob.

Another absolutely mega video! We were in corinna literally a couple of days before you and seeing and hearing all your knowledge of the place brings it even more to life! Can’t wait for part 2!

Only a few minutes in and I'm thinking really good!!

My favourite part of tassie! Me and a mate hiked up Mt Donaldson at 2am to watch the sunrise, it was the most insane views I've experienced!

Gotta love Coorina! True middle-of-nowhere ;-)

Thanks Rob 👏👏👍 I need to revisit Corinna after watching that. 👍

Great video as usual. And from one of my favourite places in Tassie. Just watching the early release Part 2 on the Patreon channel now.

Love Corinna it's beautiful out there, love your stories from Tassies wild west coast. Looking forward to the next episode

Rob, growing up, we spent countless hours and most weekends trudging through the bush around Ballarat looking for gold. Remember one time back in the 80s, a stinking hot day I was up a fairly dry creek with a Garrett deepseeker metal detector. Dad was working away in the edge of the creek unearthing some buried sandstone bars. I wandered back to where he was working to get a cold drink and he yelked "feel the weight of this" as he threw something at me. Luckily I caught what he'd thrown - a 4 oz nugget, beautiful yellow Ballarat gold. This creek was worked by thousands of miners in the early days including many Chinese reknown to be thorough. Shows that they can still pop up and even well worked ground is always worth a look. After his find, we spent weeks there cleaning up the creek bed as well as a few test pits. We probably found another 2 ounces in much smaller stuff.

@@Rob.Parsons I found small pieces with the detector but nothing like that. In this particular area, found lots of chinese artifacts, coins, locks and other interesting things. Finding the nugget was a bit of a curse as we spent so much back breaking time there, trying to find its cousins :(

Creek nicely coloured there mate. Good historical vid ! 👍🏿👍🏿

3-Days ago & I only see the notification today! YT can be perplexing! Neat Adventure, Rob, I do enjoy your deep delve into the back story & History of your explorations, as to the untrained eye it all looks so pristine, but so much of it isn't, all kinds of doings have pre-empted your visit & I appreciate you educating us. The hotel looked very convivial - wonder if they mind Kelpies? Look forward to the next episode! Cheers, keep safe!
