Course and features

The Maclaughlin River rises on the southern slopes of the Great Dividing Range approximately 10 kilometres (6.2 mi) south southeast of Nimmitabel. The river flows generally west and then southwest, joined by two minor tributaries, before reaching its confluence with the Snowy River approximately 5 kilometres (3.1 mi) south by west of Mount Rix. The river descends 532 metres (1,745 ft) over its 84 kilometres (52 mi) course, flowing through Merriangaah Nature Reserve.[2]

In its upper reaches, the Maclaughlin River is crossed by the Monaro Highway near Nimmitabel.[2]

gollark: I think I've been pretty clear that I'd prefer Nobody to not gather people's datas without asking them *beforehand*, but if he does do that anyway then he should notify people he's doing it.
gollark: If he *isn't* telling people about his data gathering escapades then he may not receive the appropriate complaint volume, so maybe I should just *assume* he's looking up someone's data at random times and complain?
gollark: I'd prefer him to not do it *at all* over doing it and telling them, and would prefer doing it and telling them over doing it and not telling them.
gollark: Hmm. Well. I would prefer if Nobody *told* people if he was trying to find datas on them, and if he succeeded.
