  • Read Josephine Winter's Transcript Here
    Regional Echoes Mountains by Josephine Winter In the distance here in Central Victoria, in every direction, there are hills and mountains. Some as bare and as brown as baked loaves, some woolly with blue-green forest. Many of these are volcanoes – dormant, it seems, not extinct. Turns out there’s no such thing as an extinct volcano, not entirely. Even from a long way away, most of the ones around here are distinct enough to navigate by: the two distinct humps of mounts Buninyong and Warrenheip point the way to Ballarat, from anywhere in the district, and even beyond: they come into view even as you drive back up from the coast. Easily seen from here are the Pyrenees ranges, the very start of the Great Dividing Range and the vista that greets anyone who looks out of my Grandmother’s kitchen window. These mountains waver blue-green in the hot summer sun, and sometimes sleep under a dusting of snow in the wintertime, and their heights and crevices are home to waterfalls, to eagles’ nests and to secret, hidden valleys of rare native orchids. When I see the Pyrenees I’m reminded of my Granny, and of the large slice of my young life I was lucky enough to spend visiting with her and the rest of my large family, in a house where there was always something in the pot for anyone who came along around dinner time, and a warm fire and a cup of tea not far away. Down the road at Clunes, you can easily spot Mount Beckworth by its “lollipop tree” – a cypress pine over a century old, planted at the end of the first world war, then used for bombing practice by the RAAF during world war two.
