Mountain of Pain

Snowboarding looks real easy. Keep yourself upright, shift your centre of gravity a little here a little there, and most importantly look glam. Yes but it looks real easy and stops there. Damage report - One popped knee, one sprained neck, one broken camera and tonnes of falls suffered by the 4 musketeers. And of course some serious wallet-erial damage. It set us back about $200 each for a day of activity, of which 8 hours were on the road.

Took us about 4 hours to get to Mt. Buller from Bundoora, we had travelled with the La Trobe uni overseas students association. Good vibes all round, even thanked the organiser post-trip for the time he put in.



Had a stop along the way and get some pretty mean chunky pepper steak pies.



Didn't manage to take many photos up on the Mountain. Visibility was poor, about 2 to 3 metres at times and it was raining, cold and wet at 4degrees. Terrible weather, and tonnes of pain. And $200 off our wallets. It would be have been great if the sun was up, for sure.
