Karels T-bar to Koscuiszko Access Map

From the top of Karel's T-bar, head due north, keeping the jagged rocky knolls to the left for around a kilometre before turning westwards and following the terrain upwards and you will get your first glimpse of Kosciuszko. From here skin virtually any line, but I would suggest keeping as much vertical as you can, and head up the eastern spur up to Rawson Pass, then pick your line up to the summit.
