Road info
Carpool priority parking will be operating today - our access road will open at 7:15am. Maintain two-way access at all times and observe the 40km/h maximum speed limit. If you have a long line of traffic behind you, please pull over and allow faster vehicles to pass.
Weather Comment
This morning, we have clear skies overhead with a few wispy stragglers and light breezes at all elevations. Our snowmaking and grooming teams have been toiling through the night to bring you some of the best on-piste conditions of our season so far this winter! All trails and parks have been groomed to perfection and are ready to go. Snowmaking will be operating through the day as conditions allow providing powdery turns down the gun lines on every lap. Great coverage off trail but we need to see the snow soften a bit before we can get into it - ski patrol will assess through the day and open up zones when safe. Check electronic signage at the summit for the latest status.
Information
Our Alpine Spa should be good to go today - a scenic dip in NZ's highest hot tub should be on everyone's bucket list! Alternatively you can soak up the happy vibes and tasty toasties at our Aperol Ice Bar at the top of the Nor'West from 11am. C6 are up here with their latest ski tech for you to try out.
