Took the family up to Mt Stirling and Craig's Hut today - magic weather, lots of snow (couldn't get over Mt Stirling and had to take the Circuit Road) - but the trip was soured a little bit.....

There is currently heavy machinery up at Craig's Hut and the grounds are really chopped up, there are now cement ‘pads’ here and there for god knows what, bordered paths to the hut and inside the boundary fence. They are in the process of preventing access off the paths, they have ripped down the beautiful old border fence and replaced it with telegraph pole thickness uprights with a top rail. They have also removed the old rustic gate and put in a huge paling gate that looks like an inept DIY man has had a go at it. ……all in all it is a shame. I had read on here they were doing works however I never thought they would change it like they are. They have even dug up the snow grass around the hut and put matting down and seeded it – obviously in an attempt to keep people off.

I am now really glad I got my ‘Ken Duncan style’ piccies last trip….cause you couldn’t get a decent one anymore.
