AUSKI will once again be heading to Mount Hotham for our 2022 ski trip, so pack your snow gear and get ready for an awesome trip to the snow!

The total cost of the trip will be $1,900 and as usual will include your accommodation, transportation, lift pass, lessons (beginner through to advanced), ski hire, and two meals a day (breakfast and dinner). 

PLEASE NOTE: if you purchase an Early Bird ticket it is expected that you pay the full amount within 7 days of the date of deposit purchase. The full amount for an Early Bird ticket is the trip cost minus $100 i.e. $1900 - $100 = $1800

Places are extremely limited this year and as such we cannot guarantee that your membership will get you a spot on the trip. However, if you were a member at the time of this event going up you will be put onto a priority list if additional places open up. 

If you already have ski gear or an Epic Australia pass please get in contact with Callum via auskitreasurer@gmail.com.

• Attending the Ski Trip will not be permitted unless this membership is purchased.

• Non-students who wish to participate in AUSKI social activities only and not the annual trip may choose not to purchase the Adelaide University Sports Association membership ($88). This however means that individuals will not be covered for insurance purposes in the case of an incident occurring.
