If you haven’t heard about Victor Scouts awesome expedition to the Snowy Mountains over Easter, you might have been living under a rock. Thanks to the support of the Dick and Pip Smith leadership through Adventure Fund, Victor Venturer Samuel was able to secure funding for a bus (and then some) to take a trip of almost 30 people to the snowy mountains for a backcountry adventure into one of the great Alpine Wildernesses of the world. (read more at Victor Scouts on the top of Australia …almost )

It’s been almost 6 months of training, preparations and skill building for everyone on the expedition. With an environment as unforgiving as the Snowys can be, an important component has been the upgrading of everyones personal equipment, as South East Queensland jumpers don’t quite cut it. Enter Anaconda Tingalpa stores Sully and Alex who graciously offered us substantial discounts on cold weather clothing, sleeping bags and just about everything else in store…including already on sale items.

From one group of adventurers to another, a special  thankyou to Alex and Sully! you guys rock!
