Agentm you are clearly uniformed. That walk razorback up from the bungalow spur, and the federation hut is the second most popular snow trek for walkers. On the weekends its not unusual to have 20 walkers to stay at that hut. Last weekend was no different. From yesterdays report 4 walkers had reported seeing his tracks veering off the normal walking line on the ridge from the hut to the peak or off the peak, I cannot remember which one now.
That is at 1700 m about 200m above the snow line.

At 1922 metres above sea level, Mount Feathertop is Victoria's second highest peak - and one of the most alluring and dangerous for adventurers, particularly in winter.
Mr Holding was last seen hiking alone about 8.30am on Sunday by a group who saw him slipping on the icy terrain.
They offered him help but he declined, saying he would go back along the Bungalow Spur track towards Harrietville, a small town at the foot of Mount Feathertop.
Earlier that morning, he had set out from Federation Hut, several hundred metres below the summit, and told other walkers he would return if the conditions were bad.
"He said, 'I'm just going to see what the snow's like. If it's too bad I'll come straight back'," bushwalker Ray Kennedy told The Age.
