SORRY CANCEL DUE TO LOW VIS/SNOW FLURRIES AND STRONG TO GALE WINDS.
Pick-up options: Leave 6.10am outside Styx Mill Country Club, 160 Hussey Road Northwood or 6.20am Yaldhurst Road, just over Russley Road intersection where houses finish, trees start. There’s plenty of parking in both those areas.
I have a large 4WD with racks/chains and ample room for your gear.
I take folding chairs for everyone to use for having breaks/lunch in car-park if you want to do that.
Must be good weather conditions. Returning at closing; earlier if conditions deteriorate or when everyone is ready.

Weather Comment
After a very promising start to the day, the winds have ramped up significantly over the last hour and are now averaging over 120km/h at the summit with gusts in excess of 150km/h. Unfortunately, our updated forecast this morning does not indicate any substantive down trend until around 8pm tonight so we have little choice but to remain closed today. We understand this decision will be very frustrating for many but it is arguably more frustrating waiting in our cafe all day and hoping for the lifts to open! On a more positive note, we have received 2-3cm of new snow and conditions look to improve markedly as we head into Monday. Please note that our SIGMA pop-up has been rescheduled to Monday - now taking place at our Aperol Ice Bar from 12pm.
