We rode up to Kopuwai Via the Prospect hill track and down the Omeo gully track on an overcast day
There is quite a bit of climbing( 1300m) on 4wd road which hurt at first but you settle into it.
All the warnings about alpine Weather at any time are worth heeding.
I had a big synthetic puffer jacket but my hands were painful cold. It was Sleet and about 40km winds on the top although Most of the way we wore t shirts.
Really good ride I agree with 3*. Watch the Nav on the descent as there are Tracks everywhere and it's easy to be having too much fun and rip past your turn off.

The sign where you turn off the main rd
The second half of the Climbing is lovely and scenic once you clear the farm land
The Showers are starting we are about to need our Puffer jackets
The migthy Kopuwai
Aaron only Posed for a couple of seconds as it was too cold to stay still
The wind stipped Trig infront of Kopuwai
