Backcountry Conditions Reports

If you’re planning a backcountry tour, please remember to fill in a Trip Intention Form for New South Wales or Victoria and carry a Personal Locator Beacon.

MSC’s free, daily Backcountry Conditions Reports are compiled by our team of professionally qualified field observers and forecasters with operational costs funded by our members and supporters. For a full overview of how MSC compiles reports, read more here.

Got your own conditions observations to share? You can now submit detailed reports and photos via our Public Observations form. Check out this video on what type of info we’re after. Any photos uploaded with public observations may be republished by MSC without attribution. You can also tag any photos @mountain_safety_collective on Instagram and Facebook, send us a private message on either of those platforms or via our website contact form.
