Wicked Rob it's an interesting part of tas aye glad you found some there's many other things to find down there too it's a sweet place great vid man cheers
@@Rob.Parsons overgrown with bauera rubioides. Ghania grandis, and coral fern. I first did this track when it was still passable, then again a few years later, it was definitely memorable, I will say that. And that was 15 year ago The only thicker track I've been along was the south east cape track that was freshly tagged but not well kept. I've been through plenty an impenetrable thicket, and darwin crater sticks in my mind
Nick Hanson thanks dude appreciate it! The app I’m using in this vid and regularly in my others is maps.me, it’s nothing fancy but it’s free, has a lot of tracks on it and is pretty accurate from my experience. I also use google maps offline too for some of the hairier walks.
Definitely Darwin glass, it had the bubbles and looked the same as what I had seen online, it is more common than I thought, some have found hundreds of pieces!
I bought a darwin glass and libyan desert glass yesterday.. then I had a dream last night I was laughing, I woke up laughing.. it was my first time.. why did it feel like that?
Glass is generally heavier than Quartz it's found near gold and black sands so you have to go to the bottom of the gravels to find the good pieces 😎👍💯🦘
Wicked lil find. Love the PioneerPauly type comment. "Theres a rock good sign there will be more rocks." 😂
I'm so blessed to live in Tassie ❤️
'Like most things epic, right here in Tasmania' classic Rob

Fascinating adventure! Well done on your research and for finding a piece. Tassie bush is just so dense and impenetrable.
Awesome vid mate keep up the adventures, always looking forward to the next one 👌🏻 cheers and safe travels bud!
Once again , great video, great subject , looking forward to your next adventure as always.
👍👍👍
Mark Wasilewski thanks mark!

A great look at the rugged West an finding a bit of glass awesome.
Tazzzie Adventures thanks mate!

@@Rob.Parsons yeah I'm addicted to the west luv it did u see the mini boat build and trip up the pieman we did totally epic mate
Yeah I did. Absolute sick seeing you hum down the pieman on that thing! That’s what it’s all about mate, getting out there.
That's an awesome time :)
great work Rob ,look forward to the next instalment
Mick Dodd cheers mick 😃🤘
Great videos mate. Just wondering the name of the little stove you use on your trips
thank you, its a companion pro nano 2
I've been into the crater, some 15 years ago Botanically intense would be an understatement.
Yup that's the stuff
Look in the local road gravel
I've heard its pretty wild haha

Love the videos mate. Just wondering what Maps and Navigation apps you're using?

I had my first look for glass recently and found a nice couple of handfulls
Please DM exact coordinates 🎉🎊😂😂
@@Rob.Parsons I'll tag you in my Instagram photo what I found
Nice find!! 🤩
😁😁😄
Your piece of Darwin glass looks like Tassie a bit.
Make an awesome necklace dude for the missis hey👍
that tassie scrub looks hard. you had pink granite. (Adamalite) so there must be tin deposits nearby.
Somewhere in there my cousin has carried out kilos but never been in there with him to see where
A mate and I walked into the crater and we found lots of leaches and a steep hill. Definitely not worth the effort, you should be glad you didn't.
I would be looking for signs of ancient habitation!! Close to water and start my search as the old people did
Wicked video mate i still haven't got down that way
Cameron Davern ah ya missing out mate, west is best!
Have you been back since? Maybe with a little hand rake for weeding might turn up some - the overburden must hide SO many stories!!
thats a good idea!
So cool! Did you get it verified? Or was it just obsidian?
Definitely Darwin glass, it had the bubbles and looked the same as what I had seen online, it is more common than I thought, some have found hundreds of pieces!
So interesting thanks
Wao nice video sir.... can i recommend you some videos if you not feel bad
You should of got a large magnet 🧲 to attach the meteorites
Interesting stuff, I guess it would be similar to obsidian. Did you do any follow up?
Obsidian is volcanic glass
Darwinite is more similar to moldavite, although easier to work with
What app do you use?
Also, what camera and stick? All my sticks don't withstand hikes. Maybe get an Amazon referral link to your gear, make some $?
Just the GoPro 7 and the 3 way stick here, I lost this kit on the fincham track 😂😅 the app is called avenza. It’s great!

Nice to see you getting your mountain goat on 👊🏻😂👍🏻 and penetrating Hills
TAS D GOLD PROSPECTING mate some of these west coast hills ain’t penetrable, you know this! 😂😂👍🤘
13:22 it's going to be relatively buoyant if it has air bubbles 😉
good point!
Need to be able to load pics in comments. Got some chunks to show

That's Darwin glass 100%
