Adelong


Dropped in to see family at Adelong staying a couple of nights in the Golden Gully CP. Spent a morning exploring the ruins of the 1860s gold mine on the Adelong Creek. The ruins are an easy walk from town, mostly beside the creek on a good path, all up about 5km return.

It's getting colder, the overnight and daytime temps are coming down and the trees are showing the first sign of autumn. Thinking more and more about heading north.


In the foreground the water wheel that powered the site.

They did some amazing things channelling water.
