Snow Report
4.5°c
Last Updated: Fri 04 Jul 15:27 PM
Fine, but cloud increasing north of Lake Coleridge from afternoon, with patchy drizzle from evening.
Happy Fri-YAY, we're Open!
This afternoon, the clouds have cleared out, giving way to bright blue skies above the ski area.
We picked up 12–15cm of fresh snow yesterday, and our grooming team is busy laying down fresh cord across the main trails. With warming conditions this morning, expect the snowpack to soften it might feel a bit funky in places, but the wider your skis or board, the better!
Our snow safety team is working hard to open terrain as conditions allow. Please respect all closures and don’t duck any ropes, they’re there for your safety.

Do You Know The Snow Code?
Limit your speed in busy areas. Match your speed to surrounding skiers and riders and be prepared for others to make sudden changes in direction or speed.
Stay 5m from others. If less than 5m from others you must slow down. The faster you go the more space you must give others.
Give way to those downhill. Look before you leap. Snowboarders: take care turning onto your heel edge.
Only stop where you can be seen from above. Always look uphill before moving again. Only stop on the edge of trails or beside fixed objects.
Backcountry
Please refer to our Ski Touring page and the New Zealand Mountain Safety Council's Backcountry page to read about how to stay safe when touring.
Terrain Closures
Any terrain closures will be indicated on the day on signage around the ski area. Please be respectful of all closures as these are in place for your safety. If you are not sure please ask one of our Ski Patrollers who are stationed around the unload areas of our lifts. Our lifts access certain terrain that suits different ability levels - to be sure you have the right lift pass to access the type of lift and terrain for your skiing/riding ability, please ask our Guest Services staff if you need assistance. When riding a lift always ensure the safety bar is lowered on your chair. If you are unsure about the lift, just ask the nearest Lift Operator to slow it down for you. All lifts operate between 9am-4pm daily, weather & snow conditions permitting.
