Overland track late July advice
Hey lads,
Planning on doing the overland track when the missus and I are both off work (July) we are both 20 and are quite fit (Im preparing for a guided Mount Aspiring Summit in OCT as well as do amature MMA)
However we are both inexperienced in winter walks other than a snowshoeing trip we did in japan unguided.
So a few questions.
We have all the gear for alpine conditions (mountaineering) and a Garmin just in case
- How difficult is the navigation in ok to extreme conditions?
- How do we bail if we are 4 days in?
- Is it too dangerous for people of our experience?
- If it is too dangerous any over winter multi day hikes that are good in taz
Overall I want her and myself to be safe as well as get experience in these conditions for future adventures we do so any advice or insights to the track in this time frame would be amazing.
