It’s all about staying in Methven then hitting Mt Hutt and then Temple Basin, Porters, Cheeseman and Craigeburn.

I think you need to contribute to this thread - https://www.boardworld.com.au/forums/viewthread/4804/ at the end it turned into people actually listing the resorts they have been too!

Whats with the lack of NZ snow?? I’m over there in 2 weeks ... hoping it storms before then   shred

Im holding my breath too!!! heading over on the 2nd! if theres no snow, there certainly wont be much beer left in town by the time I leave!

 

Been riding at Coronet for my L3 workshop. The snow coverage is bare but there are lots of fun little hits around. Snow’s been relatively firm all day but some slush on the lower and beginner runs which is fun. TC finally opened the summit the other day, but I haven’t been up there since Sunday, so unsure on how the snow’s holding up there.

I’m super interested!!!! I just won’t be in NZ at the time :-( or any time this year :-( hahaha been the last 2 years and it feels wrong knowing I’m not going this year!

treble cone is boring & often very crowded (only 2 lifts so everyone in the whole resort riding those two) if there is no fresh snow.
