Fern, my white Boxer dog, is an accredited service dog under the 1992 DD act. She holds special access rights to be allowed to enter places most dogs cannot. This includes National Parks such as Chiltern Mt Piolet NP where Reedy Creek is located. Unless your dog is an accredited service animal they are not allowed to enter NP.
Check your local regulations, as each state and territory is different, before you travel into or though NP with your dog. Here is the Parks Victoria website for those of you wishing to read up on Victoria's laws 👉 www.parks.vic.gov.au/things-t...

    Another banger. Would like to point out the shovel trick again for anyone new to digging in turgid/turbulent water. Put a line up the shovel handle (not the whole way, just somewhere easy for you to see) that is facing the sky when your blade is flat, this can help with dumping soil due to things getting out of whack. Also great to let you fine tune your angle when you want to use the blade to "shield" your load a bit from faster flows.

    I work in the British countryside where we have a short horsefly season that really sucks and seems to be getting worse every year. I don’t know if you can get it in aus but the best thing ever is a product by Avon called Skin So Soft. Got recommended by horsey people to me and it’s gold. It’s technically a moisturiser, so that month is the one month I have really nice skin too, but the horseflies treat it like kryptonite. They still pounce on you with that “oh nice! Human flesh!” Vibe but just bounce right off like some sci-fi deflector shield is in operation. Relatively sweat resistant. Highly recommend.
