TRIP DESCRIPTION:
The Suzuki Club's (almost) Annual Snow Trip to Mt Skene.
TRIP LOCATION:
This trip is typically driven in 4 parts:
1. Drive from Melbourne Jamison on Friday Night
2. Drive up to he summit of Mt Skene on Saturday morning and find a place to setup camp.
3. Short day trip from camp site around the summit area and along a few tracks and clearings (ideally all covered in snow)
4. Drive down off the mountain on Sunday arvo and then back towards Melbourne.
Due to everyone's different schedules and accomodation requirements, there will typically be people driving up to Jamison early on Saturday to join the convoy, as well as other members coming down off the mountain to stay in Jamison on the Saturday night instead of braving/suffering in the cold.
TRIP RATING:
The snow trip will cater for all levels of vehicle and driver experience. It's the once a year trip where all cars can come along and have fun with challenges for everyone.
TRIP REQUIREMENTS (Driver and Vehicle):
