A walk in the Mountains. By Leann Geach, Mont Shop Manager

May 04, 2021

Over the Anzac weekend the family and I took a walk in the Snowy Mountains. The minus 8ºC overnight tested my Helium 600 sleeping bag, but adding Mont Flashpoint Pants and Zero Down Jacket over Power Dry Silk Weight Thermals I was cozy. The little alpine tarn near our tents froze over to about 2cm thick; starting to look and feel wintry!

Leann is the Mont Shop Canberra manager and an experienced multi-day bushwalker with first-hand advice on the right gear and best practice for hiking, lightweight camping and climbing. Contact us or visit Mont in Canberra for all your adventure gear needs, expert advice and local knowledge.
