SNOW FILMS

There's nothing quite like cross country skiing, snowshoeing, hiking or biking in the Australian high country. Particularly in winter when it becomes a snowy, icy, windy world of adventure. Every day brings new challenges and discoveries, and you never quite know what to expect... but it is always amazing.

Here are a selection of videos of overnight and multi day snow adventures exploring the NSW high country, in Kosciuszko National Park from over the years, featuring the Random Footprints crew.

Kosciuszko Dawn - 2024

A Three day adventure to Australia's highest peaks. Andrew Pearce & Damian McDermott are armed with their nordic skis, their wits and two cans of the strongest beer Dan Murphy had on offer. The pair explore the main range on skis and snowshoes, culminating with sunrise on Mount Kosciuszko.

Filmed in July 2024 by Damian McDermott & Andrew Pearce. Music and editing by Damian McDermott.

Tele Country - 2024

Pearcy and Damo slap on a set of nordic skis and take a three day adventure from Munyang, to Valentines Hut, to Mawson's Hut, to the Kerries and back to Mawson's Hut before going back to the Kerries and Gungarten Pass and returning to Munyang. Or more simly put, a three day adventure in Tele Country. Late Winter 2024.

Filmed in August 2024 by Damian McDermott & Andrew Pearce. Music and editing by Damian McDermott.

The Winds of Jagungal - 2023

Rain, wind and ice. A Three day Nordic ski tour in the Australian high country, New South Wales, 2023. From Guthega Power station to the base of Mount Jagungal and back. This black & white film is divided into three chapters. The Rains of the Pass, The Winds of Jagungal and The Ice of the Kerries.

A Weekend in Guthega - 2011

A weekend snowshoeing expedition to Horse Camp Hut in the Australian Alps. The journey begins as a casual foray and becomes an existential journey into the adventurers' collective souls. Featuring a marsupial rat, a random 11 year old, a blizzard and a fantastic igloo.

Featuring Marcus Sainsbury, Kylie Dunk & Pat Giltrap.

Tin Hut Adventure

Two mates take an epic overnight journey across the top of Australia to find a hut, buried in the snow... and climb a mountain and ski back home before the weekend ends. A winter adventure in Kosciusko National Park.

Featuring Andrew Pearce & Damian McDermott

Three Days of Schlink - 2022

In August 2022, Nick, Andrew and Damo embarked on a trip from Guthega Power Station to attempt to reach Valentine's Hut in the Jagungal Wilderness... or Not. It's good to have a plan, but not essential.

Featuring Nick Bryant, Andrew Pearce & Damian McDermott.
