In the middle of Summer at the end of 2006, I went on a 4 day bush walking and camping trip organised by fellow members of the UTS Outdoor Adventure Club (OAC) to Kosciuszko National Park that ended with us waking up on Monday, New Years Day 2007 on top of the highest Mountain in Australia, Mount Kosciuszko (2,228 metres / 7,310 feet).

    Got it on my desktop thanks ! I’m in Melbourne and currently looking at a sunset as good ! It’s been 38 deg celcius today in Melbourne and we’re sitting here waiting for the cool change !

    Looking through window from where I am and seeing snow after seeing this picture and reading that it was 38 degrees in Melbourne makes it bit… surreal. Anyway not surprised by great picture, as pictures I’ve seen on your other blog, about Sydney in your reviews of it’s tourist sites are really good.

    EDITOR: thanks

    I always find it weird that Australian radio stations, shopping malls, advertisements etc all tend to play “White Christmas” style music during the run up to Xmas when it’s the middle of summer here and there are plenty of non snow/open fire related songs they could play instead
