Thanks Ozzie! I have to day off today.. So I tried my best to sleep in but waking up at 6, then 7, then 8:30.. Then watching tv/browsing the net..just came in to update.. Haha, usually I do it at work when I’m checking sales etc,


they are apparently using this as the base.. Because they keep snowmaking on top of this.. And with what I’m assuming is most staff starting around when you do.. They will keep making snow.. Another 10 or so cms predicted wed/thurs last time I looked (yesterday)

also check out mountain watch’s webcams.. They pan around the mountain and zoom in and out.. There is one in the blue cow terminal, on in the perished center and one right up the top of Mt.P on/next to Eyre Tbar… (watch it live, doesn’t work on my phone though)

What do you mean stopped? I didn’t know they had started.

Note the date - conveniently went offline or whatever you want to call it before the big snow storm.

But if you want I can change my comment to - note Thredbo have only turned on their cams for the areas that have snow!

(cause trust me ANZAC Day weekend Merrits was not online!

Most resorts don’t run their cams all year.
How many at Perisher run year round?

But don’t take this as me defending Thredbo! The image they broadcast is confusing and I’m still waiting for the village cam to come back.

It’s better than Falls Creek, take at a look at their 13 useless cams!

Wonder how the Boarder Kontrol (Snowboard brakes which were universally panned on here) which they are endorsing will go in the grass.
