Hi, I'm thinking of writing a history of Tasmanian climbing, coffee table size with lots of pics and stories. I'd be grateful for any advice on format, where to start (ascents of peaks by bushwalkers? or just origins of roped climbing), and any contributions of photos, and people I should talk to. This could be a lovely momento for the climbing community for years to come..I look forward to people's opinion, advice, photos, stories etc. Thankyou, Gerry Narkowicz

Great idea Gerry.
One thing that could be cool is to write it in an 'open' manner. Kinda like a wiki on thesarvo (or an evolving google doc). This way it would give everyone the opportunity to chip in with details and potentially producing a more in-depth view of the history. Of course this has some downsides in terms of making $$$....

Good idea Gerry
I guess chronological makes sense as far as organising it
If you can get them, first hand interviews would be good as well as the stories etc
Here's a just a bunch of random thoughts off the top of my head of some important point in the history:
1900 - 1930s
1940s/1950s:
1960s
1970s
1980s
1990s
2000s
2010s
