-6° in the Hilleberg Allak - Dead Horse Gap Australia

Описание: This was certainly a bucket list trip for me!
I've been wanting to camp in the snow for so long and have been gearing up for the past 2 years or so.
On this trip I snow shoed Dead Horse Gap to a plateau the first night and then continued up behind the Eagles Nest above Thredbo for night 2.

Conditions varied from sunny and a crystal clear on night one and most of day two, to being hemmed in with weather.

All in all it was such a good trip and I am stoked to have been able to do it and get back safely
