This video footage is really important because it's taken prior to the 2019/20 Dunn's Road bush fire which destroyed Selwyn Snow Resort, Kiandra and all of its buildings (apart from the masonry work of the court house) and the beautiful national park from Talbingo to Adaminaby. Its so nice to see things they way they were prior to that catastrophic fire.
Breezy night on Tabletop. I'm voting to go back and add extra footage in to the series. I'll watch them all again. Nice downhill runs and nice tent shots with rain sounds. The stuff of bushwalking dreams.
Nice video, despite the shortage of snow. I especially liked the mention of ski history, the hut inspection and the dilemma of finding a good route in marginal snow conditions. Personally, I'd like as much footage as possible, but I appreciate that takes more time to edit.
You dont have to be a deep winter explorer to understand how much time goes into this project - but it sure helps if you've ever tried editing outdoors action video - Ive loved every minute of it extended or abbreviated its awesome!
In my opinion, you almost certainly have a diverse audience. People who have done the AAWT and will happily spend hours watching your video because it brings back great memories and/or inspires them to at least think about doing it in winter. (That's me and my ilk...) Then there's those looking for info about doing it and they will be happy with as much detail as they can get and then there's those casually interested in ski-trekking and/or the AAWT and you may or may not lose them with too much detail. Make the commentary interesting and informative or witty and personable (as you do) and you should be OK. Personally, I really enjoyed everything up until now and I have admired your work in keeping it short and snappy without losing the important features of the AAWT whilst making clear the challenges of doing it in winter with extra added benefits and downsides of using skis.

Rest assured many of us will happily sit through this. I've been lapping it up.
Roc Noir Thanks Roc!
Loved this longer version!
Love the extended edit. Thanks for sharing all this footage and undertaking the mammoth task of editing and releasing it for all of us to watch.

Bushwalking Light Hah :) Unfortunately not happening. No time my end. It will have to be in another lifetime or from someone else who does the trip. 😆

Sorry if I missed it, but what stove and what fuel did you use on this trip? Cheers, awesome videos.
I’ve done a massive write up on all our gear at: markoates.exposure.co/aawt-winter-gear Hopefully that helps. All the best
@@MarkOates Great article. Really interesting, cheers.
