Weather Comment
We’re open! Overnight we’ve had 15cm of fresh snow with hardly any wind and the mountain is looking epic, today is one you won’t want to miss. Unmarked hazards exist both on and off trail, so please ski and ride with care. Always read the signage and enter through terrain gates to make sure the area you’re heading into is open. Make the most of today as our old mate the wind is forecast to return later this weekend!
Information
The Alpine Sports Adventure crew will be set up on the hill today – come scope the newest skis, boards, and gear, and maybe even take a demo for a spin.
