Ben Armstrong takes us along an ambitious and steep adventure on Cradle Mountain, with Ben Grindle & Shaun Mittwollen. Those columnar dolerite crags can hide a fair bit of snow in the right conditions, and for these careful and daring mountaineers, there’s a chance to slide down one Tasmania’s most spectacular peaks.
