The Walls of Jerusalem to Lake St Clair
The Walls of Jerusalem to Lake St Clair via “THE NEVER NEVER” Noel Hayward During the seven years I lived in Tasmania the Walls of Jerusalem were known to me as being a lovely area, but as they were almost on the opposite side of Tasmania (there was no Cradle Link Road in those days) did not warrant the travel required to go walking there. After all, there were more than enough beautiful walks to do and majestic rivers to kayak on the West Coast without spending a day driving to get to the Walls. However some years later whilst working at the Leinster Nickel Mine 367 km north of Kalgoorlie I had a copy of a Peter Dombrovskis Wilderness Calendar above my desk. For March there was a stunning photograph of Lake Salome and Herods Gate with a colourful patch of scoparia in the foreground. Looking out my office window all I saw was the grey dust covered Nickel Concentrator. Driving to and from work each day the drab mulga and gibber landscape on the edge of the Great Victoria Desert dominated the landscape. No mountains, no lush green forests of pencil pines or plains of cushion plants. It was clearly time to go and see the Walls for myself. As luck had it I was due to present a paper at the Australian Institute of Mining and Metallurgy’s Fourth Mill Operators Conference in Burnie in March 1991. So the conference came, the paper was presented and the Conference Dinner enjoyed (at least I think it was although I have no recollection of it).

Mountainous terrain is subject to rapid changes in weather, and higher elevations can experience snow at any time of the year. The terrain may be unstable and subject to rock-falls and other hazards. The Tasmanian countryside is home to three species of snakes, all of which are venomous and can be fatal, or lead to serious consequences. Other animals such as some spiders and ants can bite with potentially serious consequences. Some spiders carry venom that can lead to death. The Tasmanian bush is also home to Jack Jumper ants which have a bite that can cause anaphylactic shock in some people. Some people may suffer from conditions that cause those persons to enter shock from certain ants or wasp bites.

During the Last Glaciation, the glaciers that developed in the Lake St Clair area were largely controlled by the topography and played only a minor role in shaping the landscape, the most striking glacial features of which were produced during earlier glaciations. The glaciers were subject to continental influences, which resulted in some distinctive depositional and erosional landforms, bur were still of essentially temperate type. In apparent contrast to those in the West Coast Range, the glaciers in the Lake St Clair area retreated systematically in clear stages.
