@ausgeo: Congratulations to Lewi Taylor for winning the Australian Geographic Society's Young Adventurer of the Year award! 👏 Last year, Lewi Taylor climbed Tasmania’s 158 Abel mountains – in 158 days – and raised nearly $170,000 for Cancer Council Tasmania in the process. Lewi began his “158 Challenge” on 4 January 2022 by summiting three Abels – Collins Bonnet (1261m), Mt Marian (1144m) and Trestle Mountain (1164m) – in less than nine hours. He completed the challenged on his 30th birthday, summiting kunanyi / Mt Wellington (1271 m) on 10 June 2022. The funds Lewi raised on his quest will be used for cancer prevention education, support services and research.
