It's a long time since I have shown photos of Mt. Barrow not far from where we live. It's about a 40 minute drive and 1413 meters above sea level. Snow falls once in awhile in Winter but is usually gone the next day. TV towers are up there plus various other towers.
Late last year we headed to the mountain for just a drive, we were late going up and thought someone might lock the gate as it was getting towards 5pm at that time of ascending the small mountain.
Sunset was approaching on the way down so we kept our fingers crossed we could descend without being locked up the mountain. All was good.
There are quite a few photos so it might take two more posts to show you the scenery up there and on the way down.
If you click on the Location text at the end of this post it will take you to the map of Mt. Barrow.
Beautiful images. Landscapes that will never be erased from your mind.

Thank you Irma. It's always nice when the sun is setting.
DeleteAmazing images of this beautiful place. I'd like to explore there.
ReplyDeleteThere are some nice walks in that area and a little flat in some areas I believe.
DeleteWow! Rocky landscape! Beautiful in it's own way...
ReplyDeleteHappy weekend!
hugs
Donna
Thank you Donna. Odd though it may seems to us a mountain always has rocks, yet, some mountains in Australia hardly have any visible rocks - strange.
DeleteThe mountains are covered with lots of rocks. The weather condition there must be very severe.
ReplyDeleteYes, lots of rocks, most mountains in Tasmania have rocks, some more than others so therefore to me a mountain has rocks, yet some don't in some areas of Australia. The weather is not harsh on that mountain as it doesn't snow there often at all, but of course it would be cold and windy in winter but not a lot of minuses.
DeleteGreat views from the summit.
ReplyDeleteYes David and also lovely coming down over looking farmland.
DeleteVery beautiful mountains.
ReplyDeleteEverything looks different from above. It's good to change shows!
The soul calms down!
Have a great weekend Margaret!
Very different from above Katerina, always lovely at sunset.

ReplyDeleteThank you Ashok.
DeleteBeautiful photos, beautiful landscapes always and whatever the season are interesting.
ReplyDeleteHappy weekend.
Best regards.
Looks much the same up there any season Jose, as snow doesn't fall up there very often.
DeleteBeautiful autumnal mountains, nice and tranquil.
ReplyDeletePeaceful up there for sure Bob, very.
DeleteGorgeous scenery Margaret and if they locked the gate can you call someone?
ReplyDeleteIt is lovely scenery in my book too Denise. Well, I'm sure there is a phone number to ring, probably the Parks and Wildlife or the Police, the latter would find out who has the key if that gate was ever closed. I should imagine if it snowed up there a real lot the gate would be closed, probably not safe to drive up there.
DeleteStunning! Thanks for sharing :)
ReplyDeleteYou are welcome Lee.
DeleteCiao Margharet dopo un lungo periodo, dove ho attraversato momenti brutti culminati con la perdita di mia moglie, ricomincio piano piano a vedere i blog dei miei cari amici. I posti sono sempre incantevoli, ho visto quasi tutti i tuoi post pubblicati e sono molto interessanti e belli. Vediamo di riprendere la vita quotidiana anche se non sarà più la stessa per questa nuova situazione che si è venuta a creare. Ciao a presto Angelo.
ReplyDeleteOh Angelo, I'm am so sorry to read that your dear wife has died. My condolences to you and your family.
DeleteThank you for commenting on my blog and letting me know of your dear wife's passing. Also thank you for commenting and looking through my posts, I am pleased you enjoyed looking at the post.
Take care and best wishes...Margaret.
Grazie cara Margharet, un abbracio Angelo.

ReplyDeleteYes it's windy for a bit but we are used to windy roads as we have many Diane.
DeleteThanks for sharing your adventure to Mt. Barrow! It sounds like a beautiful drive with stunning views, especially as the sun was setting. It's always a bit nerve-wracking when you're up against closing times, but I'm glad you made it down without any issues. Looking forward to seeing more photos of the scenery up there and on the way down. By the way, be sure to check out my latest blog post!
ReplyDeleteSe ve todo precioso y en los atardeceres mucho más. Un abrazo Margaret.
