 Never before have I been on a trip which has involved so much planning and preparation as this trip to Mt. Anne. The food was calculated to the last calorie, and we were equipped to take the worst weather Tassie could throw at us  and probably more besides. In order to lighten our loads on the way in, we took only four days' food and the dried moat which was to form the basis of our evening meals  the rest was to ho flown in. On Monday, 1st September, we boarded the 4.00 p m. bus for I'laydena and settled down for a nice comfortable 'bus ride. Unfortunately the recent bad weather had washed away the road, so halfway we were forced to change transport. All the locals filed into a car, whilst we three ncharliosu ended up on the bad.; of an old table top timber truck amongst the locals' baggage. Never before have I been on a trip which has involved so much planning and preparation as this trip to Mt.
