Watson Crags-2.jpg - Watson's Crags. Watson’s Crags lie on the steep western side of the Kosciuszko Main Range, between Mt Twynam and Mt Townsend. It’s a rugged and rarely visited part of the mountains, several hours walking or skiing from the nearest road or ski-lift access. In winter some intrepid skiers brave the steep slopes, and in summer there’s an occasional backcountry bushwalker, but mostly it’s left undisturbed by humans. Unlike much of the region, people have made no claim to the land, haven’t tried to ‘make use of it’, and are content to just let it ‘be’. So if this land could speak, I imagine that it might talk with its own voice, unsullied by any accretions of human projections or aspirations. In this image, a massive billboard allows the land to speak to us with its own voice, and its message is…. “No Message”.
