Snow Report
-6.6°c
Last Updated: Sat 09 Aug 16:24 PM
Snow with southwesterlies.
It's 4pm and we are closed for the day!
We've received 3cm of fresh snow this afternoon and counting! Tomorrow's weather according to MetService is Fine. Southwesterlies. It should be a banger! Expect face painting in 1610, Black Crow skis demos, Aperol bar and music.
Â
Here's what you missed today:
After receiving 15cm of fresh snow yesterday, winter has well and truly returned! Expect true winter conditions across the mountain today, both on and off trail. Please dress appropriately for very cold weather.
Currently, average wind speeds at the summit are around 60km/h, which is transporting snow around the ski area.Â
The forecast is for ongoing snow showers with periods of limited visibility, so please plan accordingly.
Today’s Safety Message
"Please respect all closures and rope lines. If terrain is on hold, entering it can delay re-opening for everyone.
If you're caught in a closed area, your pass will be suspended for two weeks. Closed areas are always marked with gates, rope lines, and signage.
Follow them to help keep our staff, guests, and the mountain safe and open."

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.
