Making an impulsive decision to go and see the Clarke Dam spilling for the first time in a long time, I jumped in the car this morning with camera and started driving to Butlers Gorge. What I had not counted on was the snow. While the above picture has the nice effect of making the forest look wonderful with snow, it does nothing for the ability to drive on snow without snowchains. Not long after taking this photo, it got too dangerous and I was forced to abandon the trip. I did however get quite a lot of photos & video of the Derwent Valley in flood, and I will share these over the course of the next week or two. Please continue reading to see the conditions I was driving in..
