A number of mountains rise out of this plain and the area is dotted with historical cattle men's huts. This area is easily accessible from Falls Creek. Falls Creek resort itself has the unique Nordic Bowl. This is a sheltered area of flat and gentle slopes ideal for cross country ski learning and tuition and cross country race training. It is also a rallying point for ski tourers heading out into the national park. From Windy Corner, it is an easy ski of less than one kilometer to the Nordic Bowl. Within the resort there is a network of 20 km of groomed cross country trails and this is the key location in Victoria for cross country ski racing.

71. Backcountry At Licola And Surrounds Crosscountry skiing guide to the Licola area, Victoria, Australia. http://members.ozemail.com.au/~freeheelers/licola.htm

Cross-country skiing guide to the Licola area Access Not far from Licola are some of the best and least known cross-country ski areas in Victoria. Either the Jamieson Road towards Mt Skene, or the Tamboritha Road can easily access snowfields in the most popular areas for skiers, especially adjacent to the Tamboritha-Mt Howitt Road. WARNING: These roads are not maintained during the winter, there are no facilities beyond Licola, so special care must be taken. Chains are essential for cars and four-wheel drives. You should also carry a shovel and a towrope. Driving in snow requires special skills, so be familiar with these before you go. Always let someone know where you are going. If you get stranded, stay with your vehicle. Gate closures on the Snowy Range Road The seasonal closure is located about 2km this side of the Snowy Plains airstrip. During times of heavy snow cover, the road is closed near the gorge. At these times, motorists should not drive past the gorge car park. Lost Plain and Mt Arbuckle Lost Plain itself is an excellent area for snowplay and skiing for beginners.

As Reported by the Canadian Press, November 17, 1940... Victoria Cross to Captain Fegen Hero of H.M.S. Jervis Bay, Lost with Ship, is Honored. London, Nov. 17 - (C.P.) - A sturdy Irish captain - Fogarty Fegen - who went down with his ship, H.M.S. Jervis Bay, her guns blazing and her colors flying, was awarded the Victoria Cross posthumously yesterday. The Jervis Bay was sunk Nov. 5 as she challenged a powerful German raider in the mid-Atlantic. The "suicide" stand of the armed merchant cruiser allowed at least 33 of 38 ships in the convoy to escape. The Admiralty announced that four ships were sunk by the raider and that one other ship still was unaccounted for. Another ship also escaped from the raider but later fell victim to enemy aircraft. Captain Fegen, 49, went to his death maintaining the great traditions of the Royal Navy. During the First Great War he served as a lieutenant and later was in command of the destroyers
