The last time I did this walk was in March ’08. Liz and Connie were the leaders so I will cheat and use their notes. This is planned as a three day walk. We’ll leave Albury on Friday evening and drive to Round Mountain car park, probably stopping at Corryong for dinner. Depending how late we arrive, we’ll either car-camp at Round Mountain car park, or walk the two kms to Round Mountain Hut and camp there. On Saturday we’ll walk along Farm Ridge fire track to the site of O’Keefe Hut and spend the night there. On Sunday we’ll walk to the base of Jagungal, drop our packs, and climb to the top. We then go back down, pick up our gear, and walk on to Derschko’s Hut, to spend Sun-day night there. On Monday we walk back to the cars. As I said, the last time I did this walk was in March ’08. The mornings were very cold with ice about 5mm on the puddles. This time will be in November but I expect there will be some snow still about so be prepared.
