Main Range Conditions The track to Mt Kosciuszko is clear of snow to the first long climb with a small drift a
little further along. From the Kosi Lookout to halfway rocks the track still has a few large snow drifts. They are
slowly receding with the track from Cootapatamba to Rawsons Pass clear. There are small skinks around and
many frogs can be heard in the bog areas. The toilets are now open at Rawsons Pass. The Marsh Marigolds
are now in full bloom and look amazing and the buttercups are appearing. Mt Kosciuszko, from Rawsons
Pass can now be accessed along the walking track with snow covering the first part of it. The snow is fairly
well compacted now. Make sure you check the weather forecast before heading out. Enjoy.
