Here's some pics from the summit of Feathertop last night.
Summit reached last night, photos to follow. Here's the early morning light on the Razorback ridge. 3 hours back down to the car.
Campsite has been reached and tent pitched. Will head up to the summit later.
Having conquered Victoria's highest mountain, today I am walking up Mt Feathertop, the second highest. I've got a full pack this time as I'll camp up at Federation Hut. Because the Victorian Alps are now apparently in the tropics, the humidity is 96% and the sweat is running before I've even started.
Mountain adventure update: Monday is looking a lot wetter now so I think I will attempt Mt Bogong tomorrow as a day trip. On the plus side, Thursday and Friday now look ideal for an overnight trip up Mt Feathertop. Dropping Rory at the sitters in a few minutes then the journey begins, westward through the Brindabellas to Tumut for lunch.
