Macityres Hut and Blue Waterholes campgrounds in January

Last I heard...about 3 weeks ago now ...was that most of the tracks in the Brindies were closed indefinately due to severe damage from storms and heavy rain.
there would be a website that would tell you about this I reckon. Just try Google would be a good start.
Sorry I couldnt be more helpfull.

Cheers Keith

I was in the Brindabellas a few months back after a big storm. Trees down all over the place but were being cut out of the way. We must have cut 6 ourselves and people coming in the opposite direction cut about the same they reckoned. The tracks were all pretty good. It's a good place to visit, go up on top of Mt Coree (spelling?) and down to Flea Creek camp ground as well. Sorry it's old news. Mike

Hi Graham,

Advice from NSW NPWS on 17th Decemeber

Road closures in Brindabella National Park
After the heavy rainfalls last week in the Canberra region the NSW National Parks and Wildlife Service (NPWS) has had to close some trails in Brindabella National Park.
NPWS Queanbeyan Area Ranger, Scott Seymour said the closures will ensure visitor safety and allow NPWS staff time to clear the trails and undertake maintenance.
“Waterfall, McIntyres and Lowells Flat trails within the park are now closed to the public.
“The section of Webbs Ridge Trail between Dingi Dingi Ridge Trail and Folly Trail, along with Coree Summit Trail between Coree Flats and Pabral Trail are also closed.
“After last weeks rain creek crossings across the trails have been washed out and there is fallen timber across the trails in many spots.
“Due to these closures the 4WD camping areas on the Goodradigbee River at McIntyres Hut and Lowells Flat cannot be accessed.
“NPWS staff are clearing these trails as a priority and hope to have them open before Christmas.
"People should make every effort to contact the region’s visitor centres to check on local conditions before embarking on trips into national parks.”
For more information on national park road closures contact the NPWS Queanbeyan Area on ph: 02 6229 7166.

Cheers,

Val

With many of the Murray and the Murrumbidgee camping areas under water, large chunks of the Brindabellas and the High Country damaged and closed, floods in central NSW, crowds of people on the coast and stifling heat in western NSW, I think the tent might just be staying in the shed for January.............

Hi Graham
Not hijacking your post, but just had a look at the pictures in your "My Profile" and then under your "Forum" pictures. We came across your camel man south of Hamilton Station this year. We stopped our vehicle when we saw him coming. Managed to get just 3 pictures of him. tried to ask him a few questions, but he did not want to stop. All we could get out of him that he has been on the road for years. From his accent, he was middle European.

Here was what I could get.


Cheers

Stephen
