Hi
Derrick's hut is also within the resort boundaries too. People have camped there in summer and snow camped there in Sept./Oct.The Ski season does not start until Mid. June.If one sets up a camp at JB hut and just did the huts hike as a day walk with an early start, then that could work too. I am still thinking about going UP the Diamantina spur
. I have gone down it and now going UP it is on the list but the weather in early June could be cool and clear or just feral and nasty.
