These mountains are frequently covered with snow, in consequence of their / great altitude. The Buckland River is a small tributary of the Ovens River, which flows through the Beechworth / district, and eventually finds its way to the River Murray. The Bridge which is seen on the right of the picture / forms the roadway which leads from the Buckland Camp to the township of Bright.
