Snow comment:
Ka hari te Rātapu katoa (Happy Sunday everyone) from a frosty Whakapapa.After a mostly settled night, light rain passed through early this morning but our trails team is already out there getting things into top shape for another great day on the maunga.The Sky Waka gondola and Knoll Ridge Cafe are open from 8am, so come up early, grab a bite, and be ready for first laps when lifts start spinning from 9am. Delta, Valley T-bar, Rangatira, and Happy Valley will all be open from 9am. Trails are shaping up well for another busy day on the snow.Sledding is sold out until lunchtime jump online to check availability for later sessions. As always, booking online is the way to go for lift passes, lessons, and sledding.See you on the slopes for a full Sunday of skiing, snowboarding and sightseeing at Whakapapa.
