Another very cold night allowed the snow makers to do their thing. Today was cloudless and windless, and plenty of wno everywhere.

Didn't ski Summit or International today but skiied almost everything else. The runs off Eagle, Drovers Dream, Towers, Scott, Lakeside and Ruined Castle were just fantastic.

This evening there was the weekly firework and ski spectacular show, I highly recommend it if you get to Falls this year, particularly if you have kids in tow!

All in all, another superb day.

After a very cold night woke up this morning to clear and calm conditions, the best weather so far.

Skiied the runs off Summit and International this morning, some of those runs off International were fantastic - Skyline, Wishing Well, Last Tango, Roller Coaster and International were my picks. Some of the runs off Summit were icy early.

This afternoon hung around Drovers Dream, Towers and Scott, the snow was in absolute tip top shape. Fox Trails was a blast as was another run whose name escapes me - Corkscrew something?

Went night skiing tonight - was good fun skiing down the road and the kids loved, but unfortunately there were a few drunks skiing down Final Muster so we came in early before one them wiped out my kids.

All in all, another great day in Falls Creek.

Another fantastic day. Blue sky and uncrowded slopes, but without yesterday's wind. Down low was a bit icy in parts but in general the air is cold enough to keep the snow in good condition. The groomers had gone crazy in the maze. Wishing Well, Roller Coaster, Valley of the Moon and Jigsaw (at least) were all groomed. Sensational snow and you just can't beat the atmosphere out there. Beware Valley of the Moon: the groom runs out a bit above the Yeti trail. Advise staying high and sking out via Jigsaw rather than Yeti or lower VOTM.

Run of the day: Jigsaw

Beginners: looked great
Towers: didn't ski
Drovers: didn't ski
Lakeside: excellent
Northside: very good
Home Trails: very good
Ruined Castle/Scotts Area: didn't ski
Summit Area: excellent
International Groomers: excellent
The Maze: excellent to good
Off-piste: still too heavy for me

Blue sky, fresh snow, a strong icy blast and hardly anyone around. Started the day in the relative shelter of summit and inter, then headed over the back for a few when the wind moderated. The snow stayed cold and in great condition as long as my legs lasted. A sensational day.

Run of the day: anything groomed - maybe give it to Inter and Zipper because they are rarely this good

Beginners: looked great
Towers: didn't ski
Drovers: didn't ski
Lakeside: excellent
Northside: didn't ski
Home Trails: very good but starting to get a bit glassy
Ruined Castle/Scotts Area: Everything groomed on Scotts was magnificent, didn't get to Ruined
Summit Area: excellent
International Groomers: excellent
The Maze: didn't ski
Off-piste: all the high wind over the last few days has made the fresh snow very heavy - too heavy for me anyway
