Tim , when we here up north in Norway have -22 to -34`c ( today 50-80 km north of Oslo) and sun from a blue sky, then it`s good to see your videos, drinking hot coffee and have a good fire going in the oven :-) Smashing good ! And in about 3 mnd.`s time , we are starting our campingtrips :-)
Mate, thats just crazy temps you have to deal with. We down here in Australia just cant comprehend those kind of minus temps. Even during our winter, we are luck if we get - 4 or 5. and you're talking - 22 and up. Crazy mate. Thanks for your reply and you enjoy that hot coffee and fire. Cheers Tim.

There was movement at the station. For the word had got around. That the colt from old Regret had got away. And had joined the wild horses, he was worth a thousand pounds. And across the ditch here in NZ, everytime i see the words "Snowy River " I can't help thinking of "The Man from Snowy River." Yet again another great episode. Top marks mate. Take care.
G'day Bryan, Yeah mate, it's a great Aussie movie that one. Such a classic for this area. Thanks heaps mate for dropping in from the NZ. I greatly appreciate your feedback. Cheers Tim.
@@timbates4wdadventures yeah hi Tim. I cheated. I've got the book, "The Complete works of AB (banjo) Paterson and copied those lines. Seeing your cook set think i might get a mate of mine to put a similar one together for me. She's a great welder. Atb
Gday Jade, Thanks very much for that. It sure is nice to just kick back and relax during a camp trip. They was a top spot. Thanks for your feedback mate. Cheers Tim.
Watching this with a glass of (Aussie) red in chilly old England waiting to come back home for a vist and tour Victoria, last time I was up that way was in the early 70's with my parents.
G'day Tim, Good glass of red on a chilly night sounds great. Thanks mate for dropping in from England. I hope you can get back here soon mate, and take another look at this stunning area. Thanks for your reply. Cheers Tim.
Another ripper once again Batesy! Was up in Suggan Buggan a few years ago but have to check out the bridge. Seeing this made me start planning again. Cheers mate!
great stuff mate I see so much of me in you and you in me love the ausie bush and 100% loving your content and way of just showing of our amazing country sensational thx for getting out and doing itt to it.
Gday mate Thanks a lot for your reply. Camping out in the Aussie bush is amazing, especially in a location like this one on the Snowy River. Cheers Tim
Looks absolutely brilliant Tim. The Snowy’s been on my bucket list for awhile but looks like we might have to leave the van at home for this one and take the swag. Such beautiful countryside. 😊🍷
G'day Miriam, Stunning country, thats for sure. Yeah i highly recommend not taking the van. Apart from it being sign posted that it's not suitable for vans. Not hard to see why when you drive down. Thanks for your reply. Cheers Tim.
Thanks a lot mate. That’s a great camping spot on the Snowy River. Mate, you take care, stay safe and hopefully you can travel soon. Thanks for your reply. Cheers Tim.
Nice Batesy, you WEEKDAY bandit you lol. Gr8 segment, the cracking of the fire was awesome. Gr8 habit you have Batesy of rocking up with a load of wood,. The camp site look well used, so being prepared with fire wood comes down to experience. Thx for the history on the bridge, I guess climate change happened back in 1934 also.
G'day Shayne, Thanks for that. It was a crackn spot to kick back for a few days. Yeah, i always get a roof load of fire wood before getting to camp. You cant always be guaranteed on having fire wood when you get to where you're camping. What i don't use, i leave behind for the next person. The bridge history is amazing whats attached to McKillops. Great spot. Must of happened way back then as well. Massive amount of water came down. Thanks for your reply and feedback. Cheers Tim.
Well done tim great to know the history of Mckillops bridge the high country has so much history with place names nice to know nice spot where you camped with only the locals the song birds and the resident Goannas great video as usual and the history Peter
Thanks mate. The history side of things is very interesting. It was amazing seeing the bridge for the first time. Thanks mate for your feedback, i greatly appreciate it. Cheers Tim.
Great video & Great to see the mighty Snowy again first camped on the river near Willis ? About 45 odd years ago not much water plenty of sand bars great spot … sit in a water pothole all day The last time I went thru there plenty of water and majority of river and it’s banks over grown with vegetation access to the river near impossible that was about 20years ago but still a beautiful part of the world
Gday mate. Stunning river and country around that way. Some big floods have been through over the years. Plenty of river access now. Try and get back some day. Thanks mate. Cheers Tim.
Good spot, Stayed at Little River Junction Camp ground for about 10 Days summer 2003. We had continuous 40+ Degree days (with a close eye on the fires in the Alps nearby) and spent them all beside and in the river, still one of my best memories for a trip. Great video and great spot.
Yeah cool mate. That would be a great spot to base camp up for a few days. Nice river that one and the falls are a great walk in. Thanks mate for your feedback. Cheers Tim.
What a spot to camp mate! It is the same place we spoke about the other day at the Dargo pub. (less the bullet lol) Took yours n Bullbars advice on furthering the trip back north too. love your backyard!! cheers
Ahh Gday Jon, Thanks for the chat mate in the Dargo pub the other night. Im glad you had a great return trip back. That spot where i camped is so good. I will get back at some stage. Cheers Tim.
@@timbates4wdadventures yeah . had a good run . Pretty tame and no damage. Mountains got a good look in. In Jindy now. And a roof over our heads to boot. Canberra tomorrow. Thanks for the catchup 👍
Gday mate, It’s a Crackn spot if you can get it. Certainly one of the best campgrounds I have setup on. Hope you can check it out soon. Thanks a lot for your feedback. Cheers Tim
I was down this way last week, stopped at a place called Blue Pool if you know it early in the morning and went for a swim. Water was warm and such a beautiful place. If you visit early morning on a weekday you'll probably have it to yourself.
I'm a Sydney sider and have had the pleasure of seeing some of that country taking the rough roads back from visits to Melbourne. I've crossed the bridge a couple of times and the road to Jindabyne NSW by the Snowy twice via Suggan Buggan and Barry way through the black cypress forests. Thanks for refreshing my memory .
Gday mate. That’s a great trip that you have done. Really great country. I’ll see a lot more of the snowy river down the track. Thanks mate for your reply. Cheers Tim.
Hi Tim. Thanks for the video. We have been looking to go to Mckillops bridge for quite a few years now. We finally got the chance this week (middle of July) and this video was the inspiration for staying at Little River Junction campground. Was surprised with the drive in, but never missed a beat in bog cog, got out of there before the rain came down though. Will definitely be back again, and will keep following your channel for some more inspiration. Cheers from the NSW Far South Coast.
G'day Jim, It sure is a great area to check out and camp for a few days. Not sure how you got down to where i camped at Little River Junction. It's a seasonally closed track. Thanks for your reply. Cheers Tim.
G'day Jim, Thanks mate for dropping in from Canada. A lot of amazing country to see down here in Australia. Canada is a country that i would like to see some day. The mountains and rivers that you have would be amazing to see. Thanks mate for your reply and feedback. Cheers Tim.
Wow! You brought back memories of when I went camping with my parents as a kid 35 odd years ago. Awesome country, thanks Tim, you’ve rekindled my desire to get back there ASAP👍✊. Keep up the great work mate.
That great mate if you’re now keen to get back out. Camping all those years ago with your parents would have been unreal back then. Thanks mate for your reply. Cheers Tim.
That is an epic camping site! Just to think that some people waiting to die to go to paradise without realising that is here in the bush. Thanks for sharing
This is exactly the touring I'm now into. Going out and destroying my car against rocks is not me anymore. The content is great. In the ozzy bush listening to ozzy bush. 🍻👍
G'day mate, Spot on, just enjoying what the surrounds of the bush has to offer is very relaxing. I also really enjoy setting up in a spot like in the video and just enjoying where i am. Thanks mate for your feedback. Cheers Tim
G'day Kevin, Yeah mate, i have thrown a line in on the last couple of solo trips. No luck in catching anything. I'll keep trying. Lol Glad you enjoyed the video mate. Hope you get back soon. Cheers Tim.
Great video again - love the bird noises and the animals again. Impressed with your solo camera work - that footage at the waterfall would have taken some time!
G'day Hugh, Thanks mate. Sounds of the bush and the wild life running around were amazing. Yeah mate, a lot of work the get the shots at the waterfalls. But all worth the effort. Thanks a lot mate for your feedback. I greatly appreciate it. Cheers Tim.
Awesome as always Tim thanks mate, I was in the garage the other day, and come across my old bricky trows, and out came the grinder, a good clean-up, and all good!
G'day Stephen, Haha Yeah mate, my old brickie trowel works a treat when cooking on the campfire. Mine still has signs of brickie mud on the under side of the trowel. Great old memories from the building days. Thanks for your reply mate. Cheers Tim.
Yet again tim another outstanding vid thanks again for sharing your beautiful country you live in your burger looked so good makes me hungry lol. Thanks again
G'day Anton, Thanks mate. It was a really nice trip in some stunning country. The burger was mint mate. Lol Soo good. Thanks for your reply and feedback mate. Cheers Tim.
The Snowy River is a definite must see.Beautiful scenery and plenty of diverse wildlife to see with plenty of grouse camp sites.Relaxing in the river is the best natural stress medication.Another great presentation Tim. Cheers, Rob.
G'day Jim, Thanks mate, there's certainly some amazing country to see around Australia. Yeah mate, no fish on the menu for that trip. Lol Maybe next time. Thanks for your reply mate. Cheers Tim.
Thanks a lot Paul. Mate, it was such a great spot. First time camping on the Snowy River and wont be my last. Thanks mate for your feedback. Cheers Tim.
Gday mate, Yeah that’s a Crackn spot. Stunning view looking straight over the Snowy River. Very relaxing place. Thanks mate for your feedback. Cheers Tim.
Another great vid thanks Tim. I spend some time up that part of the world north of Buchan. Great part of the world. It’s one of those more remote places that offers you stunning landscapes with the space to soak it all in. Thanks for sharing.
All I got to say is amazing and you are lucky to live in such a beautiful country from the uk 🇬🇧 Thank you for opening up Australia like it never been seen before good on ya 👍👍👍👍
G'day Anthony, Yeah mate, this was a great trip in stunning country. The mighty Snowy River is amazing. Thanks heaps mate for your reply and thanks for dropping in from the UK. Cheers Tim.
hey tim. ive been up through there a couple of times. the brige is unreal and how it was built. too bad you didnt catch a fish. that hamburger looked increible, but man you got to have sauce on it.. great vid again thanks man
G'day Gary, Yeah mate, it's stunning country and seeing the bridge for the first time was pretty special. How do you mean mate by how was it built? Maybe next time i will get onto a fish. Still relaxing sitting by the Snowy River anyway. Lol Sauce mate will go on the next one. Lol Thanks heaps for your feedback. Cheers Tim.
hey tim hows it going. ? what i meant by how mckillops brige was built is more so how hard it would have been back in the day to get the materilas up there. id imagine they would have had to camp in there to get the job done, its so far in.
@@garywinkworth3380 yeah mate. When you see where the bridge is located. It’s a long way in from anywhere to where it stands. In the early 1900’s they wouldn’t of had modem transport like we have today.
Look At the Debris on the Headstock Column! Man that Snowy River gets going in the Wet Season .You can See the Construction joint where the Columns have been Raised
Yeah mate, it's a major river system for the area. During winter it would be cranking down through that area. The join line on the columns is very easy to see how much higher they had to make it, so it wouldn't happen again. Thanks mate for your reply and feedback. Cheers Tim.
@@timbates4wdadventures We were up there about 6 years ago and I was in awe at the amount of water that must have been flowing down through that valley to wipe out the first bridge!
Still to make it up there, been on the list for a while. Great video as always, have now got the wife hooked on your vids. Loves where you go and the great advice you always give.
G'day mate, I hope you and your wife can get up that way some day soon. Amazing country thats for sure. Thanks a lot mate for your reply and feedback. Cheers Tim.
G'day Herb, Welcome onto my channel mate. I hope you are enjoying the video content thats coming through. mate, my old brickie trowel works a treat. Good solid blade with plenty of width so i don't drop those eggs in the campfire. Lol Thanks for your reply and feedback mate. Cheers Tim.
Love the country and the effort you put into your vids. Whilst watching your latest one, I noticed some good old Aussie adjectives you use. No malice intended but in this edition, ‘Magnificent’ featured 5 times; Beautiful 5 times and Sensational twice. Good descriptors for the Snowy region. I might do a count when I get sent your next segment. Good onya mate. 👍🏻🦘🦘
Gday mate, They are just words I like to use a lot that well describe the moment. Maybe I get a bit to excited and repeat them a bit, but still great times being had. Lol Thanks mate, I greatly appreciate your feedback. Cheers Tim.
Admire the solo camping trips, i do them myself, great way just to FULLY relax, The shot with the possum and goanna in it was well done. Enjoyed this one Tim, Cheers
G'day Paul, Spot on mate. Solo camping can be a very relaxing time to be out camping. Yeah, that goanna had his eye on that possum. Im tipping the possum heard the goanna coming and bolted out of that dead tree. Thanks mate for your feedback. Cheers Tim.
Fantastic scenery Mate and you had it all to yourself . Another of those " one day " places to go to . Did the Dargo High Plains road over the new year and spent a night at the pub , but didn't buy a sticker to put on the Ranger to tell everyone i'd been there . 😁. Luv ya videos .
G’day Tim. I can understand why I spend so much time in the vic high country. Beautiful scenery. I need to put it on the bucket list & find the time. It’s a bit if a drive from northern nsw. Look f’wd to the next video. Cheers
G'day Colin, Mate if you can find the time to come down from NSW, it will be well worth the trip. Stunning country. Thanks mate for your reply. Cheers Tim.
I was up at beechworth mountain bike park and saw 2 goannas the size of the ones in your video. Just shows the amazing wildlife under your noses if you look. Quality work mate, Cheers
G'day Hamish, Beechworth is a great town. Im trying to get my mountain bike out on some of my videos. The goannas were a good size, one of them had his eye on that ring tail possum. Thanks for your feedback. Cheers Tim.

That is an epic camping site! Just to think that some people waiting to die to go to paradise without realising that is here in the bush. Thanks for sharing
Yeh mate, it's a crackn camp spot looking over the mighty Snowy River.
Thanks mate for your reply.

Yeah mate, its a top spot to kick back for a few days.
Cheers Tim.
This is exactly the touring I'm now into. Going out and destroying my car against rocks is not me anymore. The content is great. In the ozzy bush listening to ozzy bush. 🍻👍

G'day John,
Thanks mate, that was a crackn spot on the Snowy River.
Amazing spot.
Cheers Tim.
hey tim. ive been up through there a couple of times. the brige is unreal and how it was built. too bad you didnt catch a fish. that hamburger looked increible, but man you got to have sauce on it.. great vid again thanks man
G'day Gary,
Yeah mate, it's stunning country and seeing the bridge for the first time was pretty special.
How do you mean mate by how was it built?
Maybe next time i will get onto a fish. Still relaxing sitting by the Snowy River anyway. Lol
Sauce mate will go on the next one. Lol
Thanks heaps for your feedback.
Cheers Tim.
hey tim hows it going. ? what i meant by how mckillops brige was built is more so how hard it would have been back in the day to get the materilas up there. id imagine they would have had to camp in there to get the job done, its so far in.
@@garywinkworth3380 yeah mate. When you see where the bridge is located. It’s a long way in from anywhere to where it stands.
In the early 1900’s they wouldn’t of had modem transport like we have today.
Look At the Debris on the Headstock Column! Man that Snowy River gets going in the Wet Season .You can See the Construction joint where the Columns have been Raised
Yeah mate, it's a major river system for the area. During winter it would be cranking down through that area.
The join line on the columns is very easy to see how much higher they had to make it, so it wouldn't happen again.
Thanks mate for your reply and feedback.
Cheers Tim.
Awesome mate great vid!
Thanks mate. I appreciate it.
Cheers Tim.
@@timbates4wdadventures We were up there about 6 years ago and I was in awe at the amount of water that must have been flowing down through that valley to wipe out the first bridge!
@@MrThuggery yeah mate. It’s amazing how high that flood water must have been to wash the bridge away.
Absolutely magnificent spot mate. Love your video. Thank you.🍺🇦🇺❤👍
Thanks mate.
It sure is a great spot.
Thanks for your reply mate.
Cheers Tim.
Awesome Tim..thanks mate 🍺
No worries mate. Top spot.
Cheers Tim.
Still to make it up there, been on the list for a while. Great video as always, have now got the wife hooked on your vids. Loves where you go and the great advice you always give.
G'day mate,
I hope you and your wife can get up that way some day soon.
Amazing country thats for sure.

Mate what a great idea to use a trowel as a cooking tool. A new fan and subscriber. Cheers mate.
G'day Herb,
Welcome onto my channel mate. I hope you are enjoying the video content thats coming through.
mate, my old brickie trowel works a treat. Good solid blade with plenty of width so i don't drop those eggs in the campfire. Lol
Thanks for your reply and feedback mate.
Cheers Tim.
@@timbates4wdadventures Mate, looking forward to seeing your adventures and those breath taking views, keep up the good work. Cheers mate.
@@herbmarsh8519 thanks mate. I greatly appreciate that.
Love the country and the effort you put into your vids. Whilst watching your latest one, I noticed some good old Aussie adjectives you use. No malice intended but in this edition, ‘Magnificent’ featured 5 times; Beautiful 5 times and Sensational twice. Good descriptors for the Snowy region. I might do a count when I get sent your next segment. Good onya mate. 👍🏻🦘🦘
Gday mate,
They are just words I like to use a lot that well describe the moment.
Maybe I get a bit to excited and repeat them a bit, but still great times being had. Lol
Thanks mate, I greatly appreciate your feedback.
Cheers Tim.
Another great video Tim
Thanks mate.
Cheers Tim.
Good to see the trusty old trowel back at work Batesy 👍🏻
G'day Ross,
Yeah mate, thats about as much work the ol trowel does these days. Lol
Works a treat.
Thanks mate.
Cheers Tim.
Great campsite Tim, I must give that one a try.

I was up at beechworth mountain bike park and saw 2 goannas the size of the ones in your video. Just shows the amazing wildlife under your noses if you look. Quality work mate,
Cheers
G'day Hamish,
Beechworth is a great town. Im trying to get my mountain bike out on some of my videos.
The goannas were a good size, one of them had his eye on that ring tail possum.
Thanks for your feedback.
Cheers Tim.
