Samuel Markham, Amos Australis (SEASCAPE 2024)

I was fortunate enough to be in Tasmania when one of the biggest geomagnetic solar storms in recent history hit the earth’s atmosphere. Monitoring the conditions I packed the hiking bag and decided to tackle the summit of Mount Amos which overlooks the stunning Wineglass Bay in Freycinet National Park. As darkness fell the Aurora Australis (Southern Lights) put on one of the grandest light shows I have ever witnessed.
