  • A Snowy Summer
    Free Feb/ March Your only free locally owned, printed and published Community Magazine here in the Snowy Monaro Region www.snowyriverecho.com 1 Welcome to the February issue of the Snowy River Echo. IN THIS ISSUE We rear in to 2017 with glee and some new columnists! I would like to take this opportunity to thank the community for their amazing feedback and support. The Snowy River Echo is your only locally owned, pub- lished and printed magazine. We take pride in this and love supporting the community in any way we can. I had a phone call in early February from a resident in Berridale, the lady thought she had missed January’s edition. Explaining to me that she posts a copy each month to an old friend in New Zealand that used to work on the Snowy. I replied with joy now knowing that the magazine (if only one copy) gets to New Zea- land. As discussed with this regular reader, I mentioned that the magazine hasn’t been published in January before but as per the communities feedback we will as of next year publish 12 editions a year. The Monaro’s agriculture show season is upon us. So please support our local towns by attending or partic- ipating! I will be participating in a few of the horse events my self, feel free to come over and say hi! I took a drive to Buchan the other week, a little exploring down the Barry Way to the Mountain Cattlemen’s Get Together. Hosted by the Mountain Cattlemen’s Association of Victoria a great weekend was had by all and on pages 12 and 13 you have a read about some of the history and what went on.

  • Mt Kosciuszko”
    The known and less familiar history of the naming of “Mt Kosciuszko” Andrzej S. Kozek1 The highest peak on the continental Australia bears the name “Mt Kosciuszko” and we know this from our time in primary school. We as well remember that it was discovered and named by the Polish traveller and explorer, Paul Edmund de Strzelecki. Polish people consider it a magnificent monument to Tadeusz Kosciuszko. However, the history of its naming along with many related controversies are less familiar and lead to dissemination of incorrect information both in Poland and in Australia. Hence, to fill the gap, it is necessary to gather the facts in one publication equipped with references to the relevant historical resources. Key terms: Mt Kosciuszko, Tadeusz Kosciuszko, Kosciuszko's Will, Paul Edmund Strzelecki, Strzelecki, Australia, Aborigines, equality under the law, freedom, democracy. Macarthur and Strzelecki’s Expedition Paul Edmund Strzelecki (1797-1873) arrived in Australia in April 1839, as one of four passengers on the merchant ship Justine carrying potatoes and barley [P1, p. 57]. Half a century had already passed since the British flotilla under the command of Governor Arthur Phillip had landed in Australia on the shores of the Bay, which he named Sydney Harbour, and nearly 70 years since James Cook assimilated Australia into the British Empire. Strzelecki was a passionate of geology, a new discipline at the time, dealing with minerals and the wealth of the earth, and he was an expert in this field. His set goal for visiting Australia was to study Australia’s geology, or at least that of it’s eastern part, which no one had yet done systematically.
