Eden Region Old Path Ways And Trails Mapping Project

In summer Bogong moths cluster on the walls of granite crevices and caves along the crest of the Australian Alps. They were a significant food source and brought people from as far away as the coast to gather for important ceremonies. |
The sub-alpine meadows and woodland about Dead Horse Gap were important camping places for the Kooris during the moth season in summer. |
Murrnong, Microseris lanceolata, one of the yam daisies, was an important food source for people making their way to and from the moth ceremonies. |
