Main Range Conditions The track to Mt Kosciuszko is clear of snow to the first long climb and a small drift a
little way further along. The first Buttercups have been spotted on the right side of the track just after the
Merritts Bridge. From the Kosi Lookout to halfway rocks the track still has a few large snow drifts. The Marsh
Marigolds are now in full bloom and look great. You are now able to see the track in sections that allows for
easy navigation to Lake Cootapatamba, which is now visible. There are small skinks around and many frogs
can be heard in the bog areas. From the Cootapatamba Lookout there are still large areas of snow to
Rawsons Pass. The toilets are now mostly visible, but the door is still blocked with snow. The walk up to the
summit is still very deep and snowshoes are recommended, the cornice is still absolutely spectacular as are
the views towards Mt Jagungal and Charlottes Pass. Make sure you check the weather forecast before
heading out. Enjoy.
