huts are really for emergency shelter but i do know a few that have kipped in them. as for best time of year..... you looking for sunshine or snow?
decided today that my bi-annual extended tour will be to the high country in 08
it was a toss up between the cape and the high country
so some questions to kick start my planning
will more than likely drive straight to geelong, drop megs off, tour the high country and pick megs up in canberra than drop over to sydney
- autuumn or spring or best month of the year
- would the boiling billy high country books be a good starting place, i had a quick flick through the books at the land rover 60th...should have brought them then
- non 4wd camper trailer yes or no (my sister has a road type camper trailer) it will be more than likely be me and the boys so swags will probably be the order of the day
- suggested route to get good coverage of the high country, high on the list are the huts that aulro are restoring
- how busy is it during school holidays, considering pulling the boys out of school so there is less people
- are we able to roll swags out in the huts

Hi Weeds,
Be aware of the closing dates for a lot of gates (1 May?????).
Best Wishes,
Does this mean you've fixed your clutch?
Boiling Billy High Country handbook is a ripper, good information, plenty of day trips.....camp at a different place each night, accurate GPS waypoints.
I well recommend it.
I used it to plan my 12 days in that area and it was a very successful trip

That trip was February. I've done two trips, the first in November, at that time of year the thaw is still on and a lot of rivers were too deep to cross, we were unable to get into the Wonnangatta area. On the plus side there was still some snow and we slid down the snow packs on large plastic rubbish bags!
When we do it again it will be around end of February, seems to me thats a good time to see as much as you want.
I have a trip itinerary covering the 12 days includes each day trip and GPS points if you are interested.
