Wow, It was Snowing today, In between orange and Bathurst. Had to stop the car to get out for a photo, Nothing could beat the fresh feeling of a cold snowy night... without the wind of course :) Get to the snow this winter Guys and girls ! :) I have a good feeling the snow is going to be really good this year at the Snowy mountains Down Under:)

You'll need warm clothing and I suggest using a layering style of clothing starting with a good base layer i.e polyprop underwear or wool. A middle layer be it one good polar fleece or 2 mid weight polar fleece jumpers. Your outer layer or shell normally consists of a good rain coat or jacket that will repel rain and wind. A warm beanie/hat (ideally wool or fleece) and gloves/mittens are essential.
I would suggest a good sleeping bag minus 10degrees or better with a sleeping bag liner (if available). A good sleeping pad (or 2 if your a cold sleeper).
Depending on numbers we will either rent the tent and cooking equipment, I can personally only help limited numbers in my tent.
What snow equipment we need we can rent for a limited cost down in the Snowy mountains.
With registration of interest I will provide a list of equipment needed and am more than happy to advise anyone on equipment.

Thanks for asking dude.
