Thursday 20 Jul 2023 to Sunday 23 Jul 2023. XC Summit Tour

This year we had 31 skiers participate in our annual Summit Tour. Some departed Sydney on the bus while some made their own way to Thredbo.

Friday was a varied day of skiing. Some climbed Ramshead from the Dead Horse Gap, some headed up to Merritt’s to practice their telemark turns and others soaked up the Thredbo hospitality.

On Saturday we left Thredbo for the XC ski to Charlotte Pass via the Main Range. This year saw a group crossing via Twin Valleys, and some followed the pole line to the Snowy River Bridge while some detoured via Seamans Hut. The snow was hard packed but the weather was glorious – blue skies no wind.

On Sunday we skied to Perisher to meet the bus. The snow was still hard so the best option was to ski the road and make use of the oversnow tracks.

We stopped at Mittagong RSL for a great meal.

Thanks to Owen and Ian for your trip leadership and the Managers and staff at all three lodges for your awesome hospitality and excellent meals. A special mention goes to Ross our bus driver for a safe trip.
