Mt Scabby Adventure

These are photos I took on a four day bushwalk with friends Jonno and Tim in the south of the Australian Capital Territory in December 1999. Apart from a little peak bagging (Mt Namadgi, Mt Kelly, Mt Scabby, Mt Gudgenby) the purpose of the walk was to find a rare lake formed in a saddle and to go to the source of the Cotter River. This is a wild part of the ACT and in the four days the only sign of humans we saw were aeroplanes ie no powerlines, roads, paths, nothing. It's a great place.

All photos were taken with a Nikon FE2 and either Nikon 24mm f2.8 AIS, Nikon 35mm f1.4 AIS or Nikon 105mm f2.5 AIS.

As always, please vote for photos you like and please make comments about whatever strikes you.
