King River Teepookana - Poking around between the Rail Bridges (semi-boring)

The King River is a major perennial river in the West Coast region of Tasmania, Australia. Formed by the confluence of the Eldon and South Eldon rivers, the King River rises near Eldon Range on the slopes of the West Coast Range between Mount Huxley and Mount Jukes. The river flows generally south and then west, joined by nine tributaries including the Tofft, Governor, Nelson, Princess, and Queen rivers before emptying into Macquarie Harbour near Strahan, and merging with the Southern Ocean. The river descends 24 m (79 ft) over its 52-km (32 mi) course.
The upper section of the river lies in a glaciated valley, with glacier scouring scars high up on the upper parts of the mountains of the West Coast Range. Also small glacial lakes occur on and north of Mount Sedgwick. Lake Beatrice for instance lies on the eastern slope of Mount Sedgwick. The upper portion of the King River valley was first surveyed for damming in 1917 by the Mount Lyell Mining and Railway Company.

You see, in this instance, the 'semi-boring' refers to the 'poking' part -- where you use your eyes to bore the holes into the metal frames.
At least that is what we trolls do -- I am scared of water though (especially where this boat is puny), as a troll this is difficult, so it means living under bridges requires finding dry bits.
Flawless troll logic aside, I have always wanted footage of this, and indeed, high quality, where you can even see Huon pines and blue wattles, an occasional big trunk, and the mountains -- an interesting contrast with the solidness of the truss bridges.
Sadly, contamination is still a bit of a worry, though it's not as bad as it used to be (it's still iffy for pristine rainforest and waterways).
There are also some bridges I've seen vague photos of, including disused ones which look like something from a Ghibli film, like on Lake Rosebery (some corridors the old tramway tracks have been pulled out).

Most RUclipsrs use click-bait and BS to attract views, I'm fully aware my videos are a bit boring and more reference material for someone looking at visiting the area than action packed entertainment, it is what it is, I rather be honest and realistic...
It wouldn't be too much fun being a troll with waterlogged hair, you'd go down fast! :(

@@FLICKIT I see another for 'semi' -- half see 'boring but informative', half see 'ambience with the whole shebang'
Fully aware either way, I suppose it's subjective, and anything is honest in that way (don't be so hard on your content, it's amazing!)
We trolls take 'waterlogged' literally, and it is that each strand of hair becomes like a log -- it puffs out and is brittle.
I am amazed that some trolls do this intentionally (pah!) 👹

@@betula2137 Thanks :)
I'm still not convinced you are a troll 🙃

@@FLICKIT I am so!!!! 👹👹👹 my red vehemence must prove this point, right, it's not clingy or desperate or anything? 🤗
And since I'm a troll, I mean, not to be specist to my own kind, I'll clarify quickly -- I think the difference is that it's a type of content, so it shouldn't be judged relative to a different type (such as action), and a true descriptor can be a tiny bit redundant (if that's the right word) when the title is informative and you know what content to expect (from knowing the channel, or from the duration, not that a channel would be specifically one type, it could just be the gist of a video type within that channel).
I personally definitely prefer this type of presentation to others, because, well, it is less susceptible to click-bait, but it also is much more for reference in an involved way, it is seamless and gets you immersed for the raw vision, where you get the different landscapes which is beautifully captured, and the liminal 'ma' (space) between.
It's also very unique because it's Tasmania, and you typically get fleeting glances -- this is very solid, and you see things that the more presentation-type videos miss or cut out to keep viewers for that type of content.
Yep, ramble over
