This time I'm up in the Snowy Mountains - Kosciuszko NP and exploring the Long Plains area. The weather is shithouse, it's cold and raining ... but its not stopping me from getting out and about on my break from Snowy 2.0.
I check out the Tantangara Dam, camp at Ghost Gully Campground, check out Long Plains Hut, Cooinbil Hut and cross the Murrumbidgee River a few times.
Thanks for tuning in to watch this episode ... i hope you like what you see, this is part 1 of 2 episodes.

Hi, love your work. The Murrumbigee starts at the top of Long Plain sort of near Blue Water Holes but further west and then runs into Tantangarra dam. The other great river that runs due East and then does a 180 degree turn is the Mitta Mitta.
@aguyandhistroopy
@aguyandhistroopy Год назад
Thanks mate, appreciate you watching. True mate on the Mitta Mitta but it would be lucky to be 15ks before it changes direction at Hinnomunjie and heads north towards the Dartmouth Dam. Prior to being the Mitta Mitta it’s the Big River. Only realised that the Murrumbidgee started up in Long Plains region when I got there. Thought it might of been like the Snowy River and started at the dam wall, and it’s name changed like Eucumbene River. You’ll get me on a lot of facts mate, but I reckon the Mighty Murrumbidgee is the only true river to do this. 👍🏼
