At the top of Raymond Falls and at the base.  
An easy creek crossing by the looks of the pics - but looks are deceiving.  It really is more than 45 degrees steep and slushy at the bottom with zero visibility over both banks.  (On one side of which the Track simply ceases to exist.)
Formerly the 120-metre high Stringer’s Knob Fire Lookout - all that is left with molten metal spread for 100 metres in all directions.  Brunch in Bright with our wonderful travel agent Bev and some Wodonga LAC members.  Finally, some Snow Gums near Mt Beauty.

Climbing to the summit of Mount Lawson, a big rock near the summit (no, it is neither steaming nor volcanic), the view from the top.  A fern forest and one of many thousands of creeks.  The Tulloch Ard Valley and Snowy River and Heather guarding the lookout.  The Mt Granya Scout Hut (where Heather wisely declined to walk further, but fool mountain-goat me climbed to the top.  And Heather holding up a sapling along the Ash Saddle Walk.

The Den of Nargun, ‘panorama’ of Deadcock Den, a cascade a little further downstream, looking up to The Bluff from the river, and two views from The Bluff down to the river.

Frenches Narrows with Bass Strait in the distance, The Narrows Bridge, Boardwalk to the Snowy River estuary and our ‘Turnaround Tree’.  (We walked east from Marlo to this log one day and west to it from Frenches Narrows a couple of days later.)  
A field of yellow buttons at one of my birding spots, an ‘infinity pool’ and the wall of the Old Reservoir at Young’s Creek and a nearby boiler used to power a sawmill in years long past. Finally a little shrine along the Falls Creek Trail to a dedicated forester and scientist.  (A tiny glimpse of Falls Creek between the branches.)

The Heads at Lakes Entrance (opening into the Gippsland Lakes), the Entrance (enlarge to see the dolphins cavorting in the current), some swans with the town in the background, and 3 boring pics of nearby Lake Bunga.

The old shipping slips at Corringle across the Snowy River from Marlo, a fascinating pattern on harvested field beside the Murray, the Upper Murray River headwaters, Heather (marginally) breaching the closed NSW border near Biggera, and a couple of views of NSW across the Murray from far north-east Victoria.

An Orbost family enjoying a picnic along the main road, a beach tepee at Marlo (fine weather only), little water monitor, some seed-pods, a patch of burnt forest, a single unburnt mammoth at Colac Colac, historic grandstand at Corryong Racetrack, a couple of The Beast (sans caravan) and a holey tree-trunk.

Months Later......
I intended completing and closing this blog months ago, but other things kept intervening.  We are back in lockdown again at present and I have just found a little cache of photos I had prepared for posting so will post them now and that will be the end of this blog.
The photos are pretty disorganised and quite a few are out of date sequence, but so be it.
Borders permitting, we hope to be on the road again from 8 April, but that will be a whole new blog - lindoig8.tumblr.com.  I will send out an invitation to follow that one closer to the time, but for now, just enjoy the somewhat randomised pics.

A few more critters - a tiny spider (just hanging about), a skink emerging from the footpath, a tiny injured eel (20cm or less), a dolphin surfing in the entrance to the Gippsland Lakes and performing a somersault a few moments later (at least 200 metres away), a Rufous Whistler and a White-Faced Heron.
