Today is miserable.
Thredbo actually reported the truth in their report;

<quote>Snow Conditions
Snow conditions have been affected overnight by the drizzle but it’s still top to bottom riding in Thredbo thanks to the huge snow storms we’ve had in the last few weeks. Skiing and boarding today will be on a soft wet cover of snow.

Thredbo FB defended their claim of snow and adjusted the official snow report at 3pm to “snow in Antons and Sponars area” What about Basin, Karrells, Eagles Nest?

I was called into work at 6pm, it was still raining. At 8:15 it snowed 5c pieces for ten minutes then stopped.
At 9pm it snowed constantly for 1.5 hrs - 1cm built up in D’vill. On occasion some 10c sized flakes fell.

It’s not snowing now but I can’t see Eagles Nest. Board is waxed, can’t wait for morning, I’ll be up checking it early grin

BUT!
It is not cold - the fresh snow is -4? the ground -1.9?

i’ve been a bit crook the last few days, heavy chest cold resulting from a few days riding in the wet conditions, taking the wrong route to DHG, working evenings and partying nights. Exhausted and sick I still rode all day Thursday and worked.

While editing this vid today I filled myself with freshly made garlic, onion and chilli pasta sauce and vicks steam inhalations - I can breath again and hope to catch up on sleep without coughing every 10min.

As for the snow - It seems to have the same infection, it’s all gloopy! But lots of it. We really need a cold night to suck out the moisture before the sun gets to it.
