I see on BOM that there's a river height listed for the Huon at Harrison's Opening, which is conveniently close to the Cracroft. That has been consistently at 0.72m over the past few days without rain. Does anyone know how that height would relate to the height of the Cracroft? Thanks for any info.
I've been there during low water - it is probably no more than knee deep. Lots of rocky rises to cross on too. I've also seen it where it has been so high that it would have been up around head height, so not crossable. The crossing is at a pretty slow point of the river, so provided the water is low, you shouldn't have any problems.
Thanks, Pazz.
