The shortest climb of mountaineers' famous "seven summits," what mountain is the highest in Australia?

If you're an amateur mountaineer trying to capture the Seven Summits, then Mount Kosciuszko is a good place to cut your teeth. The highest peak in Australia rises 7,310 feet, only a quarter of the height of Mount Everest. Sounds doable, and an easy way to bag one of the seven, even if you don't hit them all.
