Ben Walter is a Walkley Award-winning author and author of What Was Fear Was? Ben is terrified of heights.

He has been climbing Tasmanian mountains for years , but had never been up one of the island’s signature summits.

What I really hate is exposure being on the edge of a cliff, with a sheer drop below me. Even looking at pictures of people in these situations makes me nervous.
