One Day In The Snowy Mountains

By the sudden drop in temperature in South-Eastern Australia you will probably be aware that it has been snowing in the mountains.

Temperatures went as low as -7.4C and the wind-chill was done around –17C. Not bad for the middle of November and lucky that it didn’t happen last weekend during Snowy Ride.

I awoke to snow : Crackenback & High Noon : 5:45am  - 7:40am Wednesday

The cold front appears to be mostly past us and there is not quite enough ground cover for me to pull out the planks one more time.

Don’t forget to do your bit to return Kosciuszko Park entry fees back to something reasonable? Click here. Annual passes are now $190 - well and truly more than double last year's fee of $88.
