Spoonie, I enjoyed your trip report, greatly. The photos are very good and are very well seen. It is good to see a report with excellent images. Above the Wolgan shot, is just fantastic.
The track has been very soggy and has cut up a bit, since your trip.
It is drying out nicely now. Fingers crossed that the rain returns to normal summer falls. Several sections of the BNT in NSW and the ACT (and in FNQ there's a cyclone) are still closed because of low ground remaining soggy, land slides and sections of the track have been washed out and some bridges have been washed away.
You left the BNT at the Kelgoola turnoff near Native Dog Hill (?) and then headed east, well the BNT north of there to Widden, has been closed because of landslides and sections of the track have been washed away. National Parks have closed this section from Glen Alice to Myrtle Creek/Widden.
Closer to home (my home), the bridge crossing of Ginninderra Creek was several metres under water at one stage. The top of the flood gauge is (just) visible.
The crossing at Fassifern was well under from the flooding of the Gooramon Ponds wetlands.
The swamp crossing under the Hume Hwy is worse than ever ... it is a really deep smelly ooze now. In the next shot, the decomposed granite from this track has washed into the tunnel blocking the drainage. I went and checked it out and ended going up over the Hume again. It looked only an inch deep.
The amount of erosion to the track has gone from this to this. Making for a better bike ride I reckon.
Lake George is still filling very nicely ... with more rain forecast.
... and possibly raining later today.
Again, your fine report, I've referred to others who are taking on the BNT.
Craig Cheers.
Warren.
