I'm attempting to obtain an accurate picture of the locations of water tanks on the Barries, between the Hotham Road and Speculation. This is for a trip in spring when there will be a better chance of water from winter. There are several threads here and they indicate as follows:
Water at the Hotham Road at StBernard?
Ridge west of The Twins at 036019, south of the road.
SW of The Twins, reportedly 145015. Grid ref is suss.
South Selwyn the road NE of the summit at 907995.
Cross-road at Selwyn track, East Buffalo Road and East Riley Rd a few metres along the Selwyn track, 847965.
Barry Saddle – tank still there?
Is there any reliable water near the summit of The Viking? These seems to be a possibility south and east of the summit.
Water at Viking Saddle may be a ways down.
Spec has good reliable water.
I'm unaware of any other water, and advice would be valued.
Apart from that, there are a myriad of logging and other roads, which may be confusing at junctions. Is this so?
