Mt. Feathertop - Alpine Climbing - Avalanche Ridge - Invite only

Details

• What we'll do
Alpine Climbing on Australia's most dramatic peak. The adventure begins by just getting to the start of the climbs. Might require long stretches of icy down climbing and dry tooling amongst the vegetation. "Green tooling?" About 650m+ of elevation gain. 2 tools required.

No recorded winter ascents of Adams rib or Hellfire ridge that I'm aware of and many other minor routes. May be exposed to significant avalanche danger and is very condition dependant. Probably around NZ Alpine grade 2- to 2+ depending on route (7- to 7+ Australian Winter grade) and condition.

We will camp in the vicinity of Federation Hut. Dates may vary so message organiser as the event comes closer

Over 2 days , walk in and out via Bungalow Spur

Invitation only - Requires prior alpine experience and independent climbing ability and gear. Send outdoor/alpine (with detail) resume to trip organiser if I don't know you. Best to attend the alpine events being run in the Melbourne Mountain Meetup

This is a good aerial view of the summit!
