The second part of my trip up in there Snowy Mountains - Koscuiszko NP, I continue to explore the Long Plains Region including Coolemine Historical Homestead and the Blue Waterhole, before taking off to find camp.
The weather certainly didn't improve throughout the day, and only worsened when I made camp for the night.

I'm with you with the weather, rain doesn't bother me much when camping, but heavy winds (especially gusting winds) can fuck right off 🤣

@aguyandhistroopy Год назад

Yeah, I hate wind, especially when you run out of ropes and pegs. 😂😂🤦🏽

@Mitch624 Год назад

Totally agree, dont care about rain, lightning, thunder etc but wind can just F right off 😂 Great spot, will definitely be checking it out when I get back when Long Plain reopens 👍🏼 Love these videos mate!

The wind definitely takes the enjoyment out of a good storm while camping. It’s a great spot, I’ll be back to check out Blue Water Holes for sure. 👍🏼

@@aguyandhistroopy Hey mate, I took a trip down to Yarrangobilly for the day yesterday for a bbq lunch with the bride (the new trucks first trip out). The river was up a bit so didn't take the D-Max for a swim.Visited Sawyers, Delaneys, (fantastic restorations) and the homestead at the camp ground. Brumbies, lyre bird, wedge tails, snow up at Kiandra and just a terrific day out. Also had a look at my old fly fishing stomping ground at Denisons. (hadn't been back there for 30 years and has changed quite a bit from those days.) Was going to go and have a look at 2.0 but was running out of time. Bobeyan Rd on the ACT side is atrocious but getting repaired on the NSW side. Wish the ACT Mayor would do something about it. We probably wouldn't have gone without watching your post, but glad we did, we had a wonderful day. Thanks again mate, looking forward to your next one. Cheers, BobbyB.
