KNP Upgrades in 2024
Images of the Bogong creek bridge and Porcupine Rocks Car Park.
A short video showing a couple of improvements in the Kosciuszko Park that I noticed in November '24.
First is a new bridge over Bogong creek, across from the Cascades car park, on the Alpine way. The last one was damaged by a torrent of debris some time ago, and a temporary bridge has been in place since then. The new bridge is high and dry, and should last for ages. This gives access to the Dead horse gap track, leading to the Thredbo Top Station.
Second is the completion of a car park servicing Porcupine rocks. There is a thoughtful turnaround point with parking area adjacent. To get there from the Kosciuszko road at Perisher Valley, we turn up the small road next to the Man from Snowy River hotel. I didn't see a street sign directing us up there yet.
The Bullocks flat to Perisher Valley track was still closed when I visited in November '24, but was scheduled to be open for 2025.

Gungarlin River Crossing
มุมมอง 62216 ชั่วโมงที่ผ่านมา
Images of the ford over the Gungarlin River. In November 2024 there was a large rock hidden in the deeper channel. (1:56) The Snowy Plains Fire Trail gives access to Cesjacks hut and the Jagungal area. I've never entered the park this way and so drove down to the crossing to have a look. This is where the fire trail begins. I took some footage there and this video is the result. My plan is to c...

Driving the upper Kosciuszko road in various snow conditions. Winter 2024 #2. A warm car cabin is an excellent place to view the sights of the Snowies, especially if it's too cold to stay out for long. It's a beautiful drive and the road is accessible in all but the most hostile conditions.
