We’ve just come home after a superb winter trip to the south of our fair isle.
What visit south would be complete without a trip to support our ailing GBE at Tahune, hidden in the hinterland of logging central, but still prisitine, by all accounts …. perhaps …
Fleeced at the gate, we made our way across the Huon, to the fabled steel structure, centred amid the specialty timbers of this peaceful locale.
Amazement overcame us, gobsmacked, as we noticed, subtle as a train smash, clearfell forestry, and swathes of plantation in full and clear view from the Airwalk.
Is this to supplement the $10 toasted sangas, or $8 pies?
Is FT so hard against the wall, so short on forest, that they are logging up to the Airwalk?
Are they so high on chainsaw fumes that they think this is a great idea?
Come to Tahune, and see a working forest?
Madness …. the disease of choice, in the deep, dark south …….
