Details for this years Snow Trip B - Camping trip to Mt Skene are as follows:
Date: August 1st - 3rd
Location: Meet in Jamieson on the Thursday at midday, trip will complete in Jamieson on the Saturday night.
Important Note, if you are not there on time, you cannot meet up with the trip later. We must travel in convoy due to the permit. No exceptions will be made to this rule. (Take note - Phil, Faith)
Difficulty: Medium - Hard depending on snow (might be easier with less snow). All small cars are welcome, basic recovery gear and trip equipment required. No chains required however one car needs to carry chains (any volunteers?). Big cars please discuss with the trip leader
Trip Leader: Jonno
Equipment: Self sufficient for 3 days and prepared for camping in the snow in adverse conditions (but hopefully we sleep in the hut)
General info:
As this trip takes place on a closed road that we obtain a permit to be on, you must be a paid financial member prior to the permit being submitted around 1 month before the trip date.
The trip will leave Jamieson (Thursday), drive through the bush to the Jamieson Licola Rd on the Licola side of Mt Skene (which is a wide 2wd dirt road in summer) and hopefully camp at a hut.
Day 2 (Friday) will involve driving some of the tracks in the general area and possibly summit Mt Skene before returning back to the hut.
Day 3 (Saturday) will summit Mt Skene and spend some time at the top hopefully meeting up with Trip A. We can all head back down into town for dinner at the Jamieson pub that evening.
