After months of inaction, Russell the Peak-Bagging Moose (me, that is) finally got to go out and bag some peaks – and this one was a worthy one. Mount Bogong, highest mountain in Victoria, Australia (I understand it probably doesn’t count as particularly worth if I was a moose from another country, but I must make do with what is available).
There was over 1300 metres of vertical gain in one day to reach the summit, there was wind and snow, and beautiful clear blue skies. I’m a happy moose once more.
(You can just make me out sheltering between the stones of the cairn – I was close to being blown away)
One reply on “*excellent*”
Hey Russell, Where are you these days and what are you up to? Your continued silence has led me to imagine you are getting too old for adventures (surely not) or if you have traveled overseas to somewhere with copious snow and elevation your legs may be too short for adventures.
