Guthega Dam return Map

Access route back to Guthega Dam. For those accessing this route via Falls Creek, it is advised you exit this gully earlier than later as it becomes steep and heavily treed the lower you go. Due to its low elevation, beware of significant variance in snow depth and consistency as you descend. If you do not wish to skin up to the dam wall, ensure you traverse back towards the ridge line well before via 'Last Resort'.
