Blue on Blue :: Suggan Buggan, Alpine National Park, Victoria

            Suggan Buggan is a locality in the remote wilderness of north-eastern Gippsland in Victoria, Australia, 10 km from the border with New South Wales. Only about five or six people live here permanently, but campers and those who love the wilderness visit the area. The traditional custodians of the area are the Bidawal and Nindi-Ngudjam Ngarigu Monero peoples. 

Suggan Buggan is surrounded by the Alpine National Park, the south flowing Snowy River draining the area.

Geological mapping shows that the overall 'grain' of Victoria's bedrock geology trends in a north-south direction, which is revealed in this easterly view across the valleys and ranges. This is a legacy of the ancient geological plate-tectonic processes that once operated to lift and fold, fracture and uplift this part of the Australian continent. 

This scene and atmosphere is very Australian: 
        > the mountains and valleys with almost no sign of human activity, 
        > the blue haze in the atmosphere, and 
        > the outline of the eucalypt forests silhouetted on the ridge lines.
This particular part of our country is associated with well known folklore - legends and legendry people.
This is Australia!
