One camp is cold – Camp 1900, which is as high as the name suggests. It's a bare area on damp ground beside a creek and it surely does get cold. Now the problem is that it's just one night – unless you are having a rest day in Myola which is also high – and it seems a big effort to take a thick coat for one night.

One option is to just tough it with as much sleep as you can get, tossing and turning and wishing the night would end. Another option is to sit around the fire all night chatting with the boys – that's what they do as they usually don't have warm gear.

Alternatively, take thermals and warm stuff – its up to you. The rest of the camps are usually not cold, maybe mildly cool in July/August.
