Location

The peaceful Rodger River descends from its headwaters at Big Tree Camp and Monkeytop a short distance through cool temperate rainforest to the micro-rainshadow township of Waratah Flat. From there it wanders for hundreds of kilometres with nary a person nor building in sight. Here the potoroos can frolic freely in lush forests.

The Rodger is swollen by the waters of the Yalmy River and Mountain Creek and numerous other tributaries before it too is subsumed - into the mighty Snowy River.

Just upstream from the confluence of the Rodger and the Snowy is the largest city of central western Errinundera, namely (low and behold) - Rodger River.

The Birth of Vegetarianism and Corporate Torching

In the nineteenth century this region of Errinundera had been used for raising cattle. Under the puritanical regime that gained power in the 1905 revolution, Rodger River led the nation in adopting vegetarianism. In the first instance of Corporate Torching angry Rodgerers burnt the headquarters and slaughteryards of Bovial Butchers Ltd to the ground when the company tried to sue the Animal Protection Enterprise for defamation.

Vegetarianism travelled up the Snowy River, via Jackson Crossing, to the influential northern city of McKillops Bridge. Soon all Errinundera had adopted vegetarianism and corporate torching with enthusiasm.
