When the Victorian Exploring Expedition crossed the Murray 150 years ago and headed into the far west of NSW, they were leaving the "settled districts". They could no longer be reached by mail - dispatches had to be sent and received using a courier: someone rode back to Swan Hill where they could be put on a mail coach. So from then on less news reached the folk back in Melbourne, and less often.

Something similar will happen here on this site. Reports of the events that have already occurred are in the Event Calendar/Past events menu. We are coming to a pause in activities, unless there are events happening further north that we don't know about. If you know of any events that are not in the calendar, or if you have any photos or stories from past events you would like to share with us, please contact us.
