0°C. Sunshine all around making it a terrific Thursday. There is hardly a breath of wind. The expected top temperature between 9am and 3pm is +9°C.

Kosciuszko Track Report
The track to the summit is snow covered with the higher you go the deeper the snow. The snow in places is very hard and icy and can be challenging to pass. We recommend any walkers wear sturdy stiff soled footwear/ boots. Those in runners need to be very careful on the icy sections. The Main Range is chilly but looking amazing in pastel autumn colours contrasting with patches of snow on the ground. The toilets at Rawson's Pass are open.
