NOVEMBER 2018 : WEE JASPER

A day in Wee Jasper, a small country town, 1.5 hours west of Canberra.


Wee Jasper a rural country town centre of sheep and cattle properties


Dry conditions as we drive from Canberra 


Cattle properties


Roads lined with eucalypts


Typical shearing sheds


Sheep sheltering in the shade and finding feed by the Goodradigbee River


Limestone country - fascinating faults in the surrounding hills around Wee Jasper


Crossing the Goodradigbee River into Wee Jasper


 Billy Grace Reserve where Ash and the family were camping


Happy campers





Driving to Wee Jasper caves




Listening to the introductory spiel about the caves
400 million years old with very hard limestone rock which has meant the caves have remained intact


We visited two main chambers


Lots of details


Shawls


A touching table


Lots of interest to entertain the troops


Back at the camp and a basking lizard



Driving home. Sweeping views to Burrinjuck Dam.
