North Queensland
As big as Victoria, the vast landscape of Cape York Peninsula is a rich mix of environments with some of the most interesting wild country in eastern Australia and rich Aboriginal culture and heritage. Cape York also faces an uncertain future, with development pressures jostling with Aboriginal aspirations and strong moves towards World Heritage nomination - a 'lay-down misere' on both natural and cultural grounds (if done well with broad community support). Then there's the Wet Tropics, a lush region of wild coasts, rainforests and cloud-wrapped mountains which is already World Heritage. I've spent a lot of time up there, but mostly with film cameras.....stay tuned for more uploads....
