LATE WISCONSIN GLACIATION of TASMANIA by Eric A
Papers and Proceedings of the Royal Society of Tasmania, Volume 130(2), 1996 33 LATE WISCONSIN GLACIATION OF TASMANIA by Eric A. Calhoun, David Hannan and Kevin Kiernan (with two tables, four text-figures and one plate) COLHOUN, E.A., HANNAN, D. & KIERNAN, K., 1996 (xi): Late Wisconsin glaciation of Tasmania. In Banks, M.

Tasm. 130(2): 33-45. https://doi.org/10.26749/rstpp.130.2.33 ISSN 0080-4703. Department of Geography, University of Newcastle, Callaghan, NSW, Australia 2308 (EAC); Department of Physical Sciences, University of Tasmania at Launceston, Tasmania, Australia 7250 (DH); Forest Practices Board ofTasmania, 30 Patrick Street, Hobart, Tasmania, Australia 7000 (KK). During the Late Wisconsin, icecap and outlet glacier systems developed on the West Coast Range and on the Central Plateau ofTasmania. Local cirque and valley glaciers occurred in many other mountain areas of southwestern Tasmania. Criteria are outlined that enable Late Wisconsin and older glacial landforms and deposits to be distinguished. Radiocarbon dates show Late Wisconsin ice developed after 26-25 ka BP, attained its maximum extent c. 19 ka BP, and disappeared from the highest cirques before 10 ka BP. Important Late Wisconsin age glacial landforms and deposits of the West Coast Range, north-central and south-central Tasmania are described. Late Wisconsin ice was less extensive than ice formed during middle and earlier Pleistocene glaciations. Late Wisconsin snowline altitudes, glaciological conditions and palaeodimatic conditions are outlined. Key Words: glaciation, Tasmania, Late Wisconsin, snowline altitude, palaeoclimate. -

The mountain itself is named after its resemblance to a gold mining cradle. It has four named summits: In order of height: Cradle Mountain 1,545 mtrs (5,069 ft) Smithies Peak 1,527 mtrs (5,010 ft) Weindorfers Tower 1,459 mtrs (4,787 ft) Little Horn 1,355 mtrs (4,446 ft) When it was proposed to tackle Cradle Mountain on the 1st day of our week’s walking, Verna was heard to ponder the wisdom of such an attempt on the first day. As on a previous trip, when our group undertook to climb Mt Strzelecki on day one on Flinders Island, it took the remaining week to recover! Fortunately not many of our current party heard her. So off we set at 8.30am to climb to Kitchen Hut via the Horse Track around Crater Lake from our base at Waldheim Cabins (950 metres). It was not long into the walk when I, for one, was thankful to have gloves. -
