Notes

Two seasonal workers from Porters looking to go to BR, we'd pay petrol cash, we have two snowboards + gear. Shoot me a text if you have space, even if it's just one way! Cheers, Henrik and Alva

Information

OPEN A few centimeters of snow fell last night and is making the Craigeburn Range look mighty enticing for making some sweet turns and and enjoying a great day in the mountains. Come get it while you can. As always we have pizza, beer and plenty of other food and refreshments to replenish those tired bodies after riding hard in the snow filled basins of Broken River. Access tow will only be open 10am - 11am and is for EXPERIENCED TOW RIDERS ONLY. If you are later getting up here or new to rope tows, please walk to Palmer. Remember, we are now on spring hours*, so field access does not start until 10am. *Spring (current) operating hours Tram Hours: 9:30-11:30am & 4:00-6:00pm Field Hours: 10:00am - 5:00pm #skithefriendlyone #skibrokenriver #ridethevibe
