Snowy Mountains Scheme, Australia

Tour of the Construction Works for Mechanical Engineering Thesis - 1962

[@jelesstaats5130]

What a Fantastic presentation of the Snowy Mountains Scheme, My father and elder brother for a short time worked there I first came to the area 1967 and have been coming back ever since, in that time (57 years) my wife, children and grand children have walked, skied and fished this wonderful part of Australia. at the time of writing these comments my wife and I are camped ( in a motor home,too old for tents now) at Island Bend. congratulations on an historical gem.

As one who visited the Snow Hydro Scheme first in 1959 and again in 1962 I find these reflections most interesting.. I will do a review once finished watching.
