Only for advanced skier and riders, the ride up is not for the faint-hearted, but the coverage up high is good. If the wind picks up this could affect the running of it.
Going to be firm to start before things soften as things warm up. Some great wind-blown powder around. A little skinny lower down, so you will need to pick your line.
Looking good, you are accessing this area using the shirtfront tow.
Our accommodation is backpacker style for those wishing to come and stay a night.
Please bring your own bedding, food and supplies which you can prepare in the hut kitchen.

Snow comment:
We are going to close on Monday the 18th of August, to give our crew a day off before things pick up again once this next storm comes through.
Fingers crossed for a decent dump and some powder turns on Tuesday and Wednesday.
