Views from Australia's roof of the snow season start
Canberra Times photographer Jim Green captured Snowy Mountains images from a light aircraft titled Roof of Australia. The article contrasts 1940s ski centers with a growing industry drawing 20,000 weekend visitors to Kosciuszko National Park for the Queen's Birthday start of the ski season, while noting the Snowy Hydro project, begun in 1949, as a larger force shaping the region.
