This is our chance to do some spring skiing.
We will head out from Guthega Ski resort on the trail to Charlottes pass.
May have to carry our skis as far as Illawong lodge, but once we cross the suspension bridge there should be some good snow drifts to choose from.
Options include striking out as far as Mt Twynam, or possibly even Mt Tate.
Or just up to Pounds creek and have our picnic lunch there. Hopefully in some sunshine.
Return will be back the way we came so no car shuttle required.
Difficulty: Medium to Moderate, Grade 3 or 4, depending on how far we go and the weather and snow condition.
Distance: Up to 6km walking and approx 10km on skis.
Maps: Perisher 1:25,000
Gear: Touring (or back country) skis, poles and boots, back pack with extra clothing, lunch, water, snacks. Sunglasses and sunscreen will also be required.
RSVP: by 12th September.
