Road info
Carpool priority parking is operating today so the access road will open at 6:45am. Please 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
It's a beautiful start to July up here with clear blue skies, light breezes in the base area and 25km/h southerlies at the summit. Our snowmaking team have been pumping out Armani powder across the main trails since 5pm last night and will continue to operate through the day as conditions allow. Groomed trails and parks are in primo condition and good to go - keep your eyes peeled for firm patches of snow appearing in high traffic areas later in the day. Subject to patrol assessment we expect to have most off-piste zones open off-the-bat: Towers and South Face are open! Please check electronic sign at the unload of the Summit 6 for the latest status. Have a terrific Tuesday!
