I Hike up into the ALPINE WILDERNESS for a Traditional Swagman Camp. I use a mixture of both modern and old gear while camping in the snow. This is a section of the Victorian High Country that is Remote and Harsh. The Australian Alps is an Adventurers Paradise and in the Winter can be Foreboding and Dangerous and Extreme. Tackling almost Impasable Winter Roads due to the Snow, I set off along a Mountain range and High Country Plain for some Wild Camping.
Tim Chilman made this trip possible. He is a great bloke and a great musician, whose song 'Abandoned Frontier' features in this video. Check him out here: https://www.youtube.com/@timchilman
