	Mitta Mitta River - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The Mitta Mitta River is a major tributary of the Murray River in Australia and the source of approximately 40% of the Murray's flow.
		The river's headwaters include Victoria's highest mountain, Mount Bogong, and wind their way north about 100 kilometres, gradually slowing before joining the Murray east of Albury.
		The river's flow is heavily modified by the presence of two major dams, the Dartmouth Dam and the Hume Dam.

	Rafting
		The river is gentle enough for beginners to paddle independently through the small rapids gaining a sense of accomplishment (Especially when the raft behind you gets wrapped around a boulder in the middle of a rapid).
		The Mitta Mitta has a number of Grade 3 and 4 rapids and is classified as "High Adventure." The rapids include the The Graveyard, Dislocation, Grim Reaper, The Roller Coaster and The Gobbler.
		The river is rafted in sections and you leave the river on Saturday evening to return to Omeo for the night.

		This week fly fishers fishing the Bundara River caught (and released) brown trout to 1 kilogram during the afternoon on small bead-headed fl nymphs and rainbows to 450 grams, rising at dusk, from the Mitta Mitta River at Middle Creek on a variety of dry flies, including brown caddis, fl spinners and small dun patterns.
		The Bundara River is also in perfect condition with brown trout to one kilogram taken during the week on bead-headed nymphs.
		The Cobungra River is running a tad too high for safe wading, (one client fell this week and broke his beautiful $1000 "Innovator" rod), and is proving to be a bit too challenging for many anglers.

	Murray River - BIRD (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-26)
		Geographically, it is the second-longest river on the continent — the Murray is 2,575 kilometres long, second only to its tributary the Darling.
		Although the sandbars at the river mouth prevented direct access to the sea, river steamers made their way upstream on the spring floods as early as 1853.
		In 1864 the railway line from Melbourne reached the river, and the nature of the traffic changed: now the primary destination was the railhead at Echuca, but the influx of post-gold rush settlers saw steamer traffic continue growing, reaching a peak of about 30 steamers and as many barges by 1885.

		The east and west branches of the upper Kiewa River flow north through steep narrow valleys, and although the valley does widen after the two branches merge the greater part of the catchment is mountainous.
		Significant levels of organochlorine pesticides have in the past been detected downstream from tobacco farming areas along the Ovens River, and while the use of DDT and dieldrin is now banned it is possible that recovery of biological communities is incomplete.
		Increases in phosphorous are often related to increases in turbidity as the increased number of particles in the water are carrying the phosphorous, however, this was not the case in the Broken River where total phosphorous levels showed a small decline despite the large increase in turbidity.

	The Mitta Mitta
		It flows South off the slopes of Mt. Bogong, (where it is shown on most maps as Big River), to Glen Valley on the Omeo highway, and follows the highway most of the way to Omeo.
		This section is perhaps my favourite section of any river so far as it is only a 6 hour trip with continuous grade 4-5 rapids which when there's 90cm+ of water (measured at Hinnomunjie) in there doesn't leave many places where paddling is nessesairy.
		Firstly was the fact that we were unsure of the total time it would take us to tube the river at a height of 95cm, secondly it took us a hell of a long time to get up there so we didn't get into the water till late (4:30pm).

	Case Study 9 (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-26)
		Mac and Pat Paton are in the heart of high rainfall country but damming of the Mitta Mitta River in one of south east Australia's last great water diversion schemes lowered water tables and turned their rich valley at Tallangatta in Victoria into a dryland.
		More than 60 rural producers had their own little piece of paradise in a valley through which the Mitta Mitta River ran, backed up by rainfall as high as 40 inches and annual flooding of plains to replenish the highly porous soil.
		But that all changed at the end of the '70s when the last major damming project in Victoria or NSW began to divert the river's flow into the Hume Reservoir.

	Loki Canoe Club - Water levels (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-26)
		Some rivers might require 100mm of rain to get them to an acceptable level, however if that rain falls over the course of 10 days there may never be enough water there at any given moment to get the river moving.
		Some alpine rivers will be at good levels within a matter of hours after rain has fallen depending on the amount/intensity of the rain and the size of the snowpack.
		Generally, rivers are described as being low volume, medium volume and high volume and within each group there is a subgroup of flows that are designated as low, medium and high/flood.

		Dartmouth Dam impounds the waters of the Mitta Mitta River about 24 km from the township of Mitta Mitta in north eastern Victoria.
		When high quality water is released from the dam to the River Murray, this helps to reduce salinity in the downstream reaches.
		Construction of the dam began in 1973 and was completed in 1979 by the Rural Water Commission, on behalf of the River Murray Commision - an authority responsible for regulating the waters of the River Murray.
