Bushwalk Australia

Just wondering if anyone has been into The Paddocks of late, be interested to know how the huts holding up with all the snow in the past few weeks.

Is the road open now ? as that is my wished for destination now my knees have eased off.

Was going to open again today Corvus, but by the look of the weather it may be shut for a bit longer yet

Thought that would be the case when I heard the Snow reports this morning.

I'd be more worried about the trees, Grant. Both roads from Arm River turn off had a tree down approx every 50 metres. I suspect the track will also require some chainsaw work. The huts are well built and should stand up to that amount of snow . Let us know if you are going in - might have time to come and help.

Went there Sunday 16 Aug. The road has been cleared but there are numerous trees/branches across the track.

Thanks for that info fella's, just a bit worried about the front and back verandahs they fairly flat and we've had a lot of snow this year. Rolfe, you were in there at the weekend, was there much snow at the paddocks or just on the mountains?

Looks like a working bee could be in order.

Hi Grant,
There was no snow left in the paddocks Sunday 16 but plenty on the mountains.
