Archived trip from old website run by madnicko
This is a three-day snow adventure over the September long weekend. A social mix of ANUMC snow enthusiasts will head to the Main Range to camp for two nights, enjoying the excellent Spring snow (remembering that the Main Range has great snow in late September, even when the ski resorts are finishing up for the season). The big attraction of the three-day trip is that we can access the most scenic, spectacular parts of the Main Range. You may not believe these jagged mountain peaks and frozen lakes are in Australia!
This trip is for fully sick skiers with mad crazy skills... 'n stuff... yeah. We'll be catching the Kosciuszko Express chairlift up onto the range, carrying two days' gear and aiming for the same campsite as everyone else, but totally won't be falling over on the way and definitely won't be having any yard sales. But fortunately if anyone does happen to fall over spectacularly, rest assured that we won't be hanging around with beginners to heckle us and will instead show them the edited footage with an awesome soundtrack later! Because crash reels are what pro skiers make after their trips, right?
We will try to find a more interesting route to camp, which will depend on our crew and the snow conditions. Once at the campsite, we'll have three days to ski and explore the surrounding area, with occasional breaks to eat, drink and be merry... I mean, to find some rad chutes and gnarly lines before cracking open some cold ones and cranking up the beats. On Monday afternoon, we'll pack up camp and ski our awesome way (so much better than the lame non-awesome way everyone else will take, trust me) back to Thredbo for a final carve down the piste back to the cars.
If I haven't hit the slopes with you before, please include some info on your skiing background in the registration comments. You could be the raddest skier you know, but I'm not psychic.
