Don’t have much on this weekend? Trying to ignore the week 4 assessment blues? Worry no more, do we have the last minute adventure for you! This is a last minute event because the Beginner Backcountry Ski Trip got cancelled due to the lack of snow. Instead we have decided to go hiking and have the capacity for more people to join!!   Come along to intermediate hiking in Budawangs National Park, where we will visit the ‘castle’, a large rock formation as well as some insane caves and arches along the Budawang mountain range.   We will be camping at Wog Wog campground and Burrumbeet Brooks Campground along the way.  Basic hiking gear can be borrowed from the club, petrol and transport costs included in the cost of the ticket.  No prior overnight hiking experience is necessary, however, you must have day hiked before and have a reasonable level of fitness (to carry a heavy pack 13km in and out).   This will be a 3 night hiking trip with the following itinerary: Thursday - Afternoon gear check and drive to camp (approx 4.5 hour drive) Friday - 13.2 km hike to our second campsite Saturday - 22.6 km out and back day hike to the ‘Castle’, no pack down and set up of camp required Sunday - 13.2 km hike back to the cars and drive back to Newy.   Tickets go on sale 8am Tuesday 8/9/26 (tomorrow!) and close at middnight on Wednesday - so get in quick.     Any questions, shoot me a pm on messenger. ~ Taylor Cassady

You asked, we delivered!   We are running the first ever BEGINNER backcountry skiing trip!    If you have looked longingly at the intermediate multiday backcountry ski trips that have run the past couple of years, but don't quite meet that minimum requirement of having skied at an intermediate level before, this is the trip for you!    To participate in this trip, you don't need any prior ski or snow experience, however, you will need a decent level of hiking fitness as we will be ski touring (aka hiking on skis) for 6-8 hours each day.   This trip is also a bit more costly than other trips we run in NUMC, due to the need to hire gear, lift tickets and fuel costs. Saying that, I have aimed to make it as cheap as possible by taking advantage of the cheap Thursday deal at Charlotte's pass, and opting to hike to earn our turns on Friday and Saturday! A trip to the snow for a couple days would usually cost most people $1-2K, so it is significantly cheaper than that!   To give you a rough idea of how much to budget here is a cost break down:   NUMC ticket price: $99 Includes: - fuel - National parks pass - snow chain hire (if necessary) - club gear hire (e.g. 4 season tents, winter sleeping bag, backpack, stove etc)   Rhythm Snowsports gear rental: $230 - $330 (depending on what you need, link here: https://www.rhythmsnowsports.com.au/pages/ski-and-snowboard-hire-prices).   Charlotte's pass resort day: $89 Includes: - oversnow transport to and from perisher carpark - lunch - lift ticket for the day   Trip itinerary: *more details to come after ticket purchase   Wednesday: - drive down to Cooma - pick up gear rental in Cooma - camp at island bend (near perisher)   Thursday: - ski at Charlotte's pass resort   Friday & Saturday: - 6-8 hour day ski tours (route tbd)   Sunday: - return gear to Rhythm in Cooma - drive home to Newy    If you've read down this far and are stoked to come learn how to backcountry ski, grab a ticket and I'll see you on the other side!!   Ticket go live 8am Monday 24th August.   Let's shred! Yeww!!   ~ Taylor Cassady (any questions, shoot me a message on FB!)
