Thanks Bob, hey minipowpow, if i park at charlottes, do you go down the walk track and hop across the rocks at spencers creek to get up there?
Cheers

Hey Bullet, shouldn't be a problem. The road is still open so you can drive all the way to CP and get access to the main range.

park at guthega and trek across the bridge, there is heaps of terrain there you can use without having to worry about getting told to leave.

Hi Everyone, im prob going to be in around the mountains(jindy) this w'end and was thinking of throwing in the new splitboard for a play around perisher etc.
Does anyone think it would be an issue in and around peirsher with management etc??

I dont know how much natural cover there will be by the weekend if temps are getting up through the day, and was thinking if worse came to worse of testing out the new skins ets on front valley.

This?

To make it easier for kids and beginners to load onto this busy chairlift, we have installed a new drive


Sounds more like a motor than a loading platform, but it'll be welcome. My son always found the swaying on takeoff very unnerving.

Looks like someone is out on the patches today
6/5/13 - 12:24am
Thinking about it! Need the gates open to get the vms though.
I see that International will have scanners this season. Huge improvement!

I thought you would be doing laps on those white patches already Normo.
5/5/13 - 1:12pm
Hi Rocket

Salomon Enduros....They still look brand new. I'll start the new season on them and see how they go.

Tried some K2s in Whistler in January.....Preferred the Salomons

getting twitchy for a snow fix!

Hi Normo. Not long to go now. BTW - what were your skis last year.
5/5/13 - 1:00pm
It says on the Perisher site that it got to minus 6 overnight and that this is the beginning of snowmaking for the season. Time for me to start paying closer attention to the cams.
The white stuff cometh!

$245 and $299 are normal price for 2 and 3 nights without ski/board hire. These $229/$279 deals include ski/snowboard hire so they're very very good for those who don't own anything.

Still, even if you have your own gear you can save $20.

I've got my own gear too, but I think I'll only bring my snowboard boots for the opening weekend because I'll go with all beginner friends so any board will do (plus minimise the risk of hurting my own board with unexpected rocks and dirt LOL)

The following week will go alone and on ski. I think I'll bring my own ski.

There won't be anything lower than this $229/$279 so if you're sure when you'll be going (black out dates between 15/07/2013 - 26/08/2013) just buy the coupon and make booking to the tour operator when coupon becomes available.

i dont have snow chain, so dont really want to drive myself. maybe join a tour is easier? how do you guys handle this? my car is crv.


If you don't really want to drive and seeing you're going alone, join a weekend tour will be your best bet.

Cost approx. $250 will usually include:
- Return coach from Sydney,
- Two nights accommodation (dorm),
- Breakfasts & Dinner (Of the two operators: OzSnow includes 2 BFs and 1 DN, SkiKaos doesn't, but a bit cheaper like $10 less),
- Shuttle bus to Thredbo (option to be dropped off and picked up at Bullock Flat if you wish to go to Perisher)
- National Park fee.

Optional:
- Cheap lift ticket,
- Cheap ski/board hire,
- Cheap parka & pants hire.
