Information
It's 4pm Saturday, and Porters is now closed for the day, and what a day it was, with a fun crowd enjoying great snow and nice weather. An update for tomorrow - Sunday: Porters will be opening tomorrow with all lifts running! After a lot of hard work from the team hand shovelling lift lines today, we will be opening all lifts -- T1, T2, and T3 -- with early season conditions. We’ve had some good recent snow and there will be some fun skiing and riding to be had on the upper mountain, but there are still some areas in the mid mountain where there are plenty of sharks to be found on and off trail – therefore we recommend that experts only access this terrain until we get a bit more snow, and that you either bring rock hoppers or your mate's skis. Check back in the morning about 5.45am for an update on conditions. Looking forward to seeing you all for some epic laps on Sundance !!
