Solo skier working in Ashburton for 5 weeks. Booked a night at Broken River and would love to get a lift and hopefully meet some ski buddies! Naturally I'm happy to pitch in for petrol and can bring snacks!

Information
We are OPEN for Thursday and beyond! Conditions will be firm to start and then soften early this morning. The softened skiing should be really good. Despite a little rain, coverage is still great around BR and better than almost all of last winter, so come on up! We'll be serving pizza and beer in the sun today on the famous Palmer Deck. Book your stay now for a unique New Zealand club field experience—there's nowhere else quite like it. Catered accommodation begins on Friday, 17 July, and we're excited to welcome back our chef from last season to serve up some fantastic meals for our guests. Visit brokenriver.co.nz to check out our affordable ski-and-stay packages and experience one of New Zealand's most unique ski fields.
