02 February 2018: Rees Dart Circuit partly closed
Due to storm damage to the lower Snowy Creek bridge near Dart Hut, trampers are unable to walk the Rees Dart Circuit until further notice. The lower Snowy Creek bridge is closed as it might collapse at any time after the foundations were washed out.
This bridge connects the Dart Track and Dart Hut with Dart camp site, the Rees Track and the Cascade Saddle Route.
Available options are:
In and out of the Dart Track, including staying at Dart Hut.
In and out of the Rees Track or combine the Cascade Saddle Route with the Rees Track and stay at Dart camp site, but NOT at Dart Hut. A tent must be carried. Trampers have to be mindful of the Rees road closure (updates on QLDC website) and the extended walking distance and time this incurs.
31 January 2018: Dart Valley - Bridge damaged
The bridge over Spaniard Creek on Surveyor's Flat has been damaged and closed to the public. The Creek needs to be forded and extreme care is required.
