Weather Comment
Great news! Whist the nor'wester over the past couple of days has melted out a fair chunk of our recent snow, we are still enjoying a very respectable base on the main trails. Thanks to flexibility of our seasonal crew we can safely move our scheduled start date forward a couple of weeks. Subject to snow and weather conditions, we plan to open for weekend skiing and riding from 31st May (including King's Birthday public holiday on Monday 2nd June) and then open 7 days a week from Saturday 14th June. So get ready for our first Monarch's Birthday opening in 16 years - and keep your fingers-crossed for a couple more natural top-ups or some colder temps so we can crank up the snow guns! See you very soon!
