Too cold?

Never too cold for Little Bay What a trio of troopers these kids are… blowing a gale, 20 ft waves and still keen to collect some shells and climb some rocks

No insta fans out in their bikinis this weekend, just a few hardcore locals enjoying the serenity Pretty intense waves this weekend, I have never seen waves that big at entrance of little bay.

Gerry’s top tip for Sunday evening? make sure you get the shells out of the pockets before washing the clothes shell washed undies anyone





Ten Peaks

I got a bunch of images from this walk and have gone thru alot of them – which is a bit unusual for me, typically i run out of time and forget and hence alot sit on the harddrive waiting for some love.
Not this time tho, I have taken a few of the better ones and dumped them into this gallery

I do like to present individual images, or a small number, i think slowing down and valuing individual images is important in this day of image saturation and overload. Being presented with just a single image or a couple means you really engage with them rather than swiping right continually.

Anyhows, I threw all that theory out the window and have just dumped them here some are duplicates from previous posts

They are also in order or the walk as you travel from Charlottes Pass anticlockwise around the Main range track.





Muellers Pass Campsite

We (Lorena Blacklock) found a pretty nice spot that was relatively flat, free of large rocks and out of the wind and by with some good fortune on the weather front the sky cleared up for sunset and into the evening which conveniently aligned with some dark night and part of the milkyway rising.

This shot is a panorama of 3 vertical landscape orientation shots on the 14mm, no blending, simply stitching to get a wider field of view. There was none, or very little light pollution on the horizon which is looking back towards Jindabyne and its cool how well you can see the stars on the horizon…

Seaman’s Hut

Its been a few years since I have been here, the last time I noticed the foundations of the new toilet, circa 2019 from memory. Seems its been on the cards since way back in 2017 and mainly driven from the large number of people who camp near the hut in both summer and winter and the need to address the …. crap situation there

I can report, the toilet is pretty good, blends in and matches the style of the hut and is hidden from view in most cases even with its elevated position. What I do like and it’s a very smart move, is the fact the toilet has a large full width skylight and is quite large, which makes a pleasant change from the dingy dark shoebox style ones you often see..

No need to walk all the way up to Rawsons pass to go to the dunny now
