Weather Comment
Open If you were here, thanks for joining us for first tracks this morning, we had an epic hour of riding from 8am-9am and we're now open to all pass holders. We've received a sprinkling of snowfall this morning with some cloud sitting with us so do bring your low-light lenses for the morning! It's set to brighten into the afternoon - in perfect timing for Aperol Hour. The best skiing and riding today will be found on the main trails. However, as traffic builds throughout the day, expect firmer conditions to develop in high-traffic areas. It’s shaping up to be another fun day on the mountain so grab your mates, fill the car, and we’ll see you up here soon! K2 is here with their latest ski tech - come and check it out!
Information
The Aperol Ice Bar we will check the weather to see if we can open this. Come chill with us at the top of the Nor’West lift, where the vibes are high and the views are even higher! Kick back in a bean bag, sip something refreshing, and treat yourself to some seriously tasty bites. This is the coolest spot on the mountain perched high above it all with epic views, fresh alpine air, and an unbeatable atmosphere. It’s your ultimate mid-mountain hangout. See you up there!
