Hi All,  This event is to offer support to the Lions Club of Mount Beauty in running the annual Conquestathon event on the Sunday of Labour day weekend in March. We are needed on Mt Bogong summit to report conditions etc and to supervise runners to make sure they go in the correct direction ie: back down Eskdale Spur. We would leave on Saturday morning and camp out Saturday evening on or close to the Summit of Bogong. We will drive as far as we can on Camp Creek Road towards Granite Flat then walk up the Eskdale spur track on the saturday and then follow the last runner/walker back down on the Sunday

The runners/walkers leave Mountain creek camp ground and take the Staircase to the summit, and return via Eskdale spur  approx 20km round trip.
