Trip by Willow Warrior volunteers to camp at Thomas Boyd Track Head for three days and paddle the Goobarragandra River to look for black willows of other willow taxa seedlings growing into view to remove from the river. The third day we paddled from Kells Lane to the tumut river junction. We foud about 5 black willow seedling sites. But did not treat any as they were in flowing water. These will be reported to the local weed authority. We took many photos of the flood damage from last years summer floods it appeared that the river did not distinguish between willows and red gums. Many willows and red gums were undercut and pulled away from the bank and there was one portage and anther two fallen red gums that almost blocked the river ans are causing errosion on the oposite bank. there wer very few location with any substantial riparian vegetation.
