Main Range Conditions There are a couple of small drifts on the way to the first bridge, with two large ones
before the Lookout. The snow is very soft so care needs to be taken as there are some holes starting to
appear. The fen and bog areas and small streams are starting to show as is the Tall Herb fields to your right
after Merritts Bridge. The walking track beyond the lookout is clear for about 100m then completely covered in
snow pretty much all the way to Kosciuszko. It is recommended that only adults with moderate fitness level to
attempt the summit and that you follow where others have been. The cornice is completely intact and truly
spectacular, Rawson's is pretty much a big bowl of snow, with toilets and interpretation signs still snowed
under. Families are advised to go only as far as the Kosi Lookout.
