[QUOTE="xobazzip, post: 22894, member: 845"] That tree standing all alone in the middle has GROWN there since the diggings were undertaken...in fact the old timers were not much concerned with trees as their only value really was for the timber they could provide. I have some shafts and leads on my property that have trees that I can hardy put my arms around growing out of them but this areas was searched well over 100 years ago. Sometimes it is difficult to just stand still in the middle of such an area and try to imaging what it was like all those years ago. The old timers had it tough but then they didn't have much else going for them in a country that was so NEW and without any form of social welfare you had to do something to survive. regards [/QUOTE]
