He’s in luck it goes from the 10th –14th of August and holds the 15th as a weather day.

Edit: moving this thread to News and Events.

Awesome work guys thanks heaps. Flying out on the 14th though so might look into extending the stay for a night. Did they say which mountain it would be at ??

It’s going to be held at Cardrona.

Wow… and the website is still not updated. Who’s the slacker?
