Initial 5 questions
How did I develop my question?
Science: The Earth's plates
Geography: Views
History: Captain Patrick Logan

Geography:Biomes
Why did I choose these questions?
- I'd heard that the region was very diverse in environments
- I was interested in finding out if the mountain's creation was the cause of its unique traits
- Finally, I thought that it would be fascinating to read about others who had been to Mt Barney, since they live or lived very different lives to me and would harbour different opinions
