It’s been three years since the Mountain Cattlemen’s Association of Victoria (MCAV) have held its annual Get Together, and what a return the event has made.
More than 3000 people gathered at Merrijig last weekend, the muddy ground apparently no deterrent.
Part of the celebration was a focus on the 40th anniversary of the Man From Snowy River movie, with Tom Burlinson – aka the Man himself – spending the weekend mingling with fans, signing autographs and taking a trip down memory lane.
Tom was joined by number of the original crack riders who also participated in the film, including local stunt man, Gerald Egan, movie producer Geoff Burrowes and master horsemen, Charlie Lovick.
