This was day four of the 2023 edition of New South Wales Nordic Ski Club’s annual Charlotte Pass gathering, a week where the club takes over the Southern Alps Ski Lodge and tries to get out for as much backcountry skiing as possible. With the winter of 2023 being particularly poor for snow cover this would prove much more challenging than usual, as there were far fewer options than past years for touring. With the very high winds of the last five days now starting to ease off I was keen to get out for a longer trip so offered a return trip to Mount Kosciuszko.
