  • Join me on a drive from the town of Cooma to the Thredbo and Perisher ski resorts in the Snowy Mountains of NSW! The 2022 snow season is off to a great start, with this video capturing some spectacular scenery of the Monaro plateau, Lake Jindabyne and Jindabyne Dam, the Kosciuszko National Park and of course some heavy snowfall!

    I have never driven this route before, wow, it is indeed a beautiful scenery, the part with snow on side of the road reminded me of the times driving in Canada's highway.

    It must be funny to drive along here - "yeah, yellow grass, typical Australia" then SNOW?! What?
    I've never seen snow so the gradual build up is so fascinating to me.

    Nice video! The snow reminds me of back home in NZ.
    As a Perth resident now, I've gotta say, it's weird seeing snow on the side of Aussie roads!

    During episode 9 of season 6 of the American version of The Mole, the Snowy Mountains served as one of the challenge locations. It was during that episode that a fan-favorite competitor, Avori Henderson, would be removed from the game. Avori was a former beauty pageant contestant and model who later became a video game streamer.

      Not really. I believe legally you'd be required to carry snow chains but I can't say I've seen anyone actually using them, on the main roads anyway

    I'll never understand why we keep ourselves in a secure cabin with seat belts, but it's fine to keep Dogs on a tray external to the safe cabin where if you brake just a little too hard accidently they'll fly into the air and end up mince.

    These are great videos. How do you get the road name and speed to show? Does your GPS do that automatically?

    • @GreatAussieDrives

      Thanks mate! These are added in during video editing using Adobe Premiere Pro (so nothing to do with the GPS/dashcam).

    The film was unnecessarily sped up and music was added. Road films should be presented without any processing. It's good if you can hear noises from the road.

    Great drive! How would compare Logan Motorway in Queensland to Maryland Route 200 TOLL (Intercounty Connector or ICC with open road tolling) in the US state of Maryland? Here's the video:

    • @GreatAussieDrives
      @GreatAussieDrives  Рік тому

      Thanks for the comment, Maryland 200 seems a fair bit straighter and wider than the Logan, which really could've done with some widening when I last visited Brissy last year.
