When were the Blue Mountains first crossed?
May 1813. William Wentworth, William Lawson and Gregory Blaxland were the first Europeans to make a complete journey across the Blue Mountains without being forced to turn back. Previous attempts by other explorers had been made, but they always ended with the exploration parties finding themselves faced with an impossible climb up sheer rock faces, or standing on ridges that ended sharply at cliff edges. Lawson, Blaxland and Wentworth departed South Creek, Sydney Cove, on 11 May 1813. After some three weeks of exploring through difficult and previously impenetrable terrain, the men reached Mount Blaxland, the end point of their journey, from where they could see the plains to the west, on 31 May 1813.
Did Blaxland Lawson and Wentworth cross the blue mountains?
Blaxland, Lawson and Wentworth were the ones who virtually saved the early colony in New South Wales by finding a way across the Blue Mountains. They traversed previously unknown country, and so met with numerous problems due to the unfamiliarity of the countryside and the terrain. The major problem that the three explorers had was continually confronting dead ends. When they followed river gullies, they ended up against impassable cliff faces. When they followed the mountain tops, they often found themselves on the edge of sheer cliffs too steep to take down their horses. Lawson, Blaxland and Wentworth were also going through countryside where there were no roads or tracks. They travelled through thick, impenetrable bushland which had to be hacked away with machetes. Mosquitoes were a constant problem. Another fear was aboriginal attack: little was really known about the Aborigines, and it was not really understood that they were just as keen to avoid Europeans as Europeans were keen to avoid them.

What were William Wentworth's beliefs?
Wentworth was the son of a doctor and a convict woman. He started as a young radical, wanting an independent Australia and social equality. As he grew older, became more prosperous and got land, he became conservative, supported the squatters and even strove for a colonial aristocracy with hereditary lordships and knighthoods. A radical change indeed. Biographical Background: William Charles Wentworth was born on 26 July 1790 on the 'Surprize', a ship transporting convicts to Australia. As a "Currency Lad", one of the first children born into the colony of New South Wales, he enjoyed his status as different from the "English ascendancy," and was an outspoken nationalist, determined to gain civil rights for those who, like himself, were very much in the minority. He was an advocate of Australia becoming self-governing.Wentworth, along with William Lawson and Gregory Blaxland, was the first European to cross the Blue Mountains which, for twenty-five years, had prevented the expansion of the colony at Sydney Cove. Many others had tried to find a way through, but been turned back by dead-end ravines and vast expanses of impassable rocky cliffs. Discovering a way through the Blue Mountains opened up the huge interior of Australia for settlement and further exploration.Wentworth was the only one of the three explorers to make a significant name for himself in the new colony. He commenced 'The Australian' newspaper in 1854 and founded the University of Sydney in 1852.
