On coming upon this large section of trunk I was surprised as in the last few days it had moved some 10m down stream from the spot it had inhabited since last winter. The stream must have been running at some bore after the recent rains to have shifted such a bulk of timber, and then returned to its normal seasonal level as swiftly as it had risen. A reminder of how fast natural circumstances can change and an easily forded stream can become a deadly torrent and impassible obstacle.
