With a focus of walking Cradle Mountain's Overland Track in the Tasmanian Wilderness as a team of Venturers (with some experienced Scouts invited) it's an obligation to work on the logistics, paperwork and preparations required, but without the fitness, experience and training, the journey will be a struggle.

This is the story of a team of youth who worked together to achieve their goal and walk the Overland Track.

With funds secured from the Pip & Dick Smith Leadership Through Adventure Fund the reality of going to Cradle Mountain become real. So a plan was created, a Committee formed and actions implemented.

One of the first actions implemented was to keep up the fitness levels and hiking experience ... to go outside, explore, discover and have fun through the experience of hiking and expedition training.
