Information
At 6:30am we have clear, stary skies overhead, light winds in the base area and brisk westerlies at the summit averaging 35km/h. Our detailed forecast shows the wind gradually trending down throughout the day.It's shaping up to another great spring day at Mt Hutt with all-day sunshine and mild temps - so don't forget your sunscreen and sunnies!The snow surface both on and off the groomed trails will start off firm and fast and then soften as the day warms up. Despite the sunshine, the wind will have a cooling affect so it might take a bit longer for the snow to soften on the upper mountain today.With just 6 days of the season remaining, we still have heaps of off-piste terrain that will open as the snow releases - check signage at the summit unload or our snow report for the latest status of our expert and extreme zones. Please ski and ride to your ability level and always wear a helmet.Please note that Opuke Kai has now closed for the season.We look forward to seeing you all very soon.
