Flood Damage in 2007

Here a a couple of photos of the extreme flood damage in July 2007 to Old Lodge.

It was overdue and did great service to the conservation and diversity of the stream part of the reserve.

luckily we did not loose the bridge.  We build two new ponds in the new contours, 13th and muddy.

One of the photos shows Alan on the bridge after clearing



Boundary with Army and Mrs Reid needing repair. 

Rupert, Alan and I did the work, if my memory serves me right









The scale of the flow is obvious







Where did those tussocks go?





Tussocks caught on stumps
