Weather Comment
It is now 4pm and Mt Hutt is closed for the day. Today brought wild and windy conditions, making it a challenging one on the mountain. A big thank you to our team for their efforts and flexibility throughout the day, and to our guests who joined us despite the weather – we truly appreciate your support. The good news is tomorrow is looking great, with calmer conditions on the way. We’re looking forward to a much more enjoyable day on the slopes. We will check the conditions in the morning and update the report by 6.30am. Drive safe, and we look forward to seeing you all soon.
Information
The Alpine Sports Adventure crew will be set up on the hill tomorrow – come scope the newest skis, boards, and gear, and maybe even take a demo for a spin.
