I read this guy's diary ages ago. Thought all you Tasmanians may take an interest.

Born in Penguin, Tasmania, Keith started his bushwalking and mountain-climbing career from a base in Launceston in 1931. He kept a diary in which he recorded all his walks and climbs in great detail and with formidable precision.

Keith Lancaster's Diaries get a regular mention in the forum, Cocksy. I uploaded a photo and a map of his Federation Peak climb a few years ago here - viewtopic.php?f=3&t=1441&p=11873

The guy putting the diaries online is a member on this forum, dirkus49.
The diaries were first mentioned on the forum in April 2007
Dirkus made this topic to indicate the new website for the diaries.
