Yeah I remeber that!

Hopfully they can make enough for Mitchell to open at least.

Otherwise the drinking will start super early.

Does anyone use snowatch.com for some forecasting? The next two weeks look pretty grim. :( Lets hope the forecast is wrong!

Nope! Frog has gone off his game in the last couple of years…

I check out Mountainwatch and Grasshopper’s report on there.

I also read what the weather boffins on ski.com.au have to say.

I think this weekend is going to consist of lots of eating and drinking!

true…. never used grasshoppers. I will check it out. Does anyone know, if you own a premium membership to coastalwatch, will it corresponds with mountainwatch?

Hmm not sure Ben.

Also not sure what memebership gets you… there is nothing i ‘can’t’ see on mountainwatch

FV will be covered in manmade come daylight. As will many other areas.

I know it pains people to concede that I’m right but there’s no need to fight it.

Doesn’t look covered spaz!

Mitchell looking pretty good. I think that will be the only thing open come Saturday.
