EASTE R CAMP 1939. 
By'K. Little . 
This year Safety Cove was chosen, the site "being 
on the South end of the Cove, fifty yards from the 
heath. Half Moon Bay, Brown Mountain, Remarkable 
Cave, and Point Puier, all spots of interest and 
charm, were within easy walking distance of the Camp, 
The advance party commenced work on the Camp 
site on Wednesday morning insuring a completely 
erected camp by Thursday night when the main party 
arrived. Thirty-four members, including juniors, 
were under canvas. 
The weather was fine with the exception of one 
night when the rain caused some tents to leak, but 
sunshine and a fire soon dried the blankets. 
The sand dunes at Half Moon Bay, some of the 
finest in Tasmania, provided excellent sport, for 
we had with us some fine sledges. Juniors and 
Seniors enjoyed the thrill of rapid descent and the 
pains of ascent. Brown Mountain with its sheer 
cliff face of i+50 ft, supplied us with a glorious 
panorama of Point Puier, Tasman Island, and Cape 
Raoul. This view is one we will never forget. The 
Remarkable Cave proved a never failing attraction, 
many fine photos being obtained by members. Point 
Puier and Port Arthur were both visited. 
Our evenings were spent around the Camp Fire 
where instructive talks were interspersed with song
