History
The area was established in the 1850s. The Kunama branch railway, also known as Batlow line, was completed in 1923 as an extension to the Tumut line, branching off at a junction close to Gilmore and was formally closed, in 1957.[3]
Climate
Elevated by almost 1,000 metres (3,300 ft) and windward of the ranges, Kunama experiences a typical climate of the upper South West Slopes; with warm, stormy summers and cold, snowy winters. The extreme precipitation from winter to spring is brought about by westerly upwinds.[4]
