COTTER RIVER AT BLACK SPRINGS - VIDEO


Another Video from Johnny Boys Walkabout Blog showing the Cotter River near "Black Springs". The Cotter River and dam system was constructed to supply Canberra with clean water. The Cotter was the cities original water supply and was recommissioned for use during the drought that gripped the Capital for a decade. The Canberra Bushwalking Club organizes walks all over the ACT. If you are interested in bush walking in the Australian Capital Territory see the Club website or John's Blog.
