We were so impressed with our sojourn through the Snowy Mountains we decided it would be the destination for the next day. We headed for the Snowy Mountains and hoped we could take advantage of the massive cloud formations that precede big storms. Our luck held out until the storms hit, with heavy gray clouds, rain sleet and hail. When that happened, we explored a little bit avoiding the mudded out roads and four foot piles of snow. At an elevation topping 10,000 feet, there was plenty of snow still on the ground and the lakes were frozen. There is enough beauty up there to keep us busy for weeks, but we didn’t have the time. This turned out to be the last day of Safari XXXIX due to changes in my travel plans. We can look forward to the Autumn Safari on the East Coast.
