Fresh snow, blue skies, an epic team, salmon steaks and sweet potato fries for dinner! What could be better?

The Australian Alpine Academy Intro to Mountaineering is off to a great start with the team sledding in from Guthega yesterday and setting up camp. (Heavy loads too, with all the extra tents to ensure social distancing etc)

Today they have made their way to Blue Lake to begin their training and will return to Camp later tonight before rinse and repeating tomorrow with a fresh batch of new skills like cramponing, self arrest, crevasse rescue, fixed line ascension etc.

It’s so nice to be back in the mountains!!

Cheers
CTSS Team
