Andy snuck off with fellow skier Paul for a first and last of the season cross country ski. It turned out to be a warm day on the main range. Arriving at Guthega by 9am, they began their adventure in t-shirts by climbing Guthega Trig. Dropping well below Consett Stevens Pass, the boys crossed Guthega River before climbing up Mt Tate. Descending down Tate East Ridge they were VERY lucky to find an ice bridge, possibly the only one, over Pound Creek. After crossing the suspension bridge across the Snowy River, Andy bumped into friends who happened to be staying at Illawong. From here, it was a long traverse through the snow gums back to car at Guthega. By all accounts an excellent day out.
Meanwhile back at home, I dropped off Katy at her friends house where they braved a dip in the backyard pool. It must have been only 25°C! She enjoy having a sleepover too.
So that left Ella and I to entertain ourselves. At Ella's request we resumed painting the chicken playground, fence and coop....
