Not if you go first…
Sooo.. Anyone else going to perisher for opening weekend? Heading down for the weekend with 8 mates but keen as to meet new friends from boardworld.
By my calculations I reckon we will have close to a Doz there!
I should probably invest in a good sleeping bag anyway but I will likely have a ton of people I know down there this year which will be nice.
Keep and eye on somewhere like Kathmandu… 2 years back, I got Mr.h0z and I sleeping bags for when we go down the snow.. because the first time we went we stayed in a mates caravan.. ( ask spaz about pats patch..)
I got them, 2 for $200 so $100 each.. the rrp was $350 each.. and they are rated to -30?C and damn they are warm… I ended up in summer pjs with the end of the bag unzipped so my feet were out to cool down.. ( it was around -2/-3 outside..)
I’m tossing up on opening.. usually we go the 2nd weekend, so its not as crowded.. but depends on everyone in the group.. ( I’m happy to go as much as I can)
Jokes buddy
Won’t I feel like crap if you cark it in 5 years time
Glad you added that! I started thinking you were planning something.
Sweet! Other half is a bit of a sook so camping in the cold isn’t about to happen so we’ve found a house in Jindy for the weekend but normally we stay at a mates farm just out of Jindy..
We usually go either jindy inn.. as the owners are this lovely couple and we always chat to them.. and they include breakfast too.. ( its basically a room with a bathroom, and like 1 bunk (2 people) a single bed and a double bed (so 5 people all up.. which is the base for our group ( that ALWAYS goes ). But I have a feeling we will have extras this year.. ( got a few more people into it last year hehe.)
If we have more than the 5 but too few for two rooms, we usually rent a house for the weekend as it works out cheaper,, and we get a house for the longer stints..
Last year we got an awesome place for the 10 nights.. with 10 people.. worked out $5,500 all up.. so $550 each.. which was $50 a night… and it had a lake view, 2 bathrooms 2 car garage,, and heated tile floors through out, except in the bedrooms which were carpeted.. ( but this year its on a 12 month lease.. I was so devo when I saw that)
most weekends at perisher for me and my bro and our mates hey so anyone who want to meet up pm me ur number !
