Usually I try to go up every weekend - even if it’s just for the day… Went to buller mostly tho, because it’s only 2.5-3h from home… This year have season pass for Hotham/Falls… Already have a whole week booked at falls, a weekend at Hotham on mountain, one w/end in harrietville and a weekend booked at Mansfield for buller… Oh yeah, thredbo too - of course!!!  grin

Azz and family will be at Hotham a lot…

Not that much, older kids doing units 1,2 & 3,4. We have to lie low for a few years downer

So far we have only one weekend planned for Hotham, The Shred and a week in New Zealand.

We’ll see what happens as the snow falls and my addiction kicks into overdrive cool grin

I say full season but in truth I’ll be travelling a lot between Thredbo and home (Narellan (Sydney’s SW)). I have to split my life to fit both my loves in. I did the same last year and it’s a tough gig but at least (mostly) I don’t travel with the masses on weekends!

There will be a spare seat in my car. I should set my dates on a google calendar and post it on my site for anyone interested in a lift and possible accommodation in Thredbo. Should be a fortnightly routine.

First trip is next Monday - to pick up the keys of the new pad. Yew!!
I’ll come back early for a race(car) meet in Goulborn and the Snow & Travel Expo on Sunday 24th.

Falls or Hotham. I love Falls Village. Its all in the Resort its self. Hotham also has a nice village, It is actually at the top of the resort! Well besides the Summit Chair above it. Hothams village is a lot more spread along the main road. Has a great mix of lodge accom up to some amazing luxury accom.

Depends on the terrain you like too really.
I am definately biased to Falls Creek. Some people dont like the terrain and say its too flat and not long enough, but I totally disagree. You just have to ride the right runs!

I rekon Falls village has the best vibe to it and is so beautiful at nightime
