June 2016 Snow Photos

Snow photos from this afternoon. Got up there just in time to see the snow come in. Not sure if there will still be any around tomorrow morning, might depend on conditions overnight. There are a couple of large trees down one near the suspension bridge and another along the Ash Track so access is a little bit difficult, hopefully they will be cleaned up soon.

These photos supplied by a follower of our Facebook page were taken yesterday morning, when we had a nice dusting of snow. Beautiful conditions for sight seeing and not too much snow (which can damage the vegetation that is not used to snow).
