Entertainment Falls Creek Falls creek venues Pretty Valley Alpine Lodge Barry Jones Falls Creek A printed menu for Christies Court at Pretty Valley Alpine Lodge for the 1986 season. ...Pretty Valley Alpine Lodge was built at Falls Creek, Victoria in about 1963. The top floor was the former mess building at Rocky Valley hydro camp. In 1978, Barry Jones came to Falls Creek in 1978 before purchasing the Pretty Valley Alpine Lodge in 1979. He initially intended to stay for about three years but was still there four decades later. One of the important features of the Pretty Valley Alpine Lodge was Christies Cocktail Bar. Christies was the place to go for cocktails and après ski in the 80s and early 90s. In 1996, Barry decided to take a calculated gamble. Christies cocktail bar, which traded on the premise for the ten previous winters was revamped in favour of an English pub, the Cock N Bull, in the heart of Falls Creek. The pub with traditional English fare and beers on tap rapidly became a success. Anglophile memorabilia, English relics, intimate wood-panelled booths, an authentic bar and two comfortable snugs all added to the atmosphere and style of something truly unique in the snowfields. Each year, the opening of Cock N Bull unofficially marks the start of Falls' busiest time of the season, with residents gathering to celebrate.This menu is significant because it is representative of an iconic venue in Falls Creek in the 1980s and early 1990s.A printed menu for Christies Court at Pretty Valley Alpine Lodge for the 1986 season.entertainment falls creek, falls creek venues, pretty valley alpine lodge, barry jones falls creek -

Mt Bogong is a popular recreational venue ...Mount Bogong located in the Alpine National Park and part of the Victorian Alps of the Great Dividing Range, is the highest mountain in Victoria, Australia, at 1,986 metres (6,516 ft) above sea level. The Big River separates the massif of the mountain from the Bogong High Plains to the south. From the nearby town of Mount Beauty to its summit, Mount Bogong rises more than 1,600 metres (5,200 ft), thus making it one of the highest peaks in Australia not only in terms of its elevation above sea level, but also in terms of actual base-to-summit prominence. Mount Bogong is a popular backcountry skiing mountain through winter but only has snow for the mid winter-spring months. It is around 30 kilometres (19 mi) by road and walking track or 12 kilometres (7.5 mi) direct to Mount Beauty. Falls Creek and Mount Hotham ski resorts are also nearby. Camping is relatively safe below the tree line but the summit ridgeline is very exposed.
