Still needs a little bit more snow lower down.
Some great pockets of wind-blown and fresh snow about.
The tow line is getting sporty, but still good coverage up high, getting thin lower down.
Very thin in places with a lot of tussocks and grass about.

Snow comment:
Sorry, team, we have run out of snow on our tow lines and are going to have to close until we get more snow.
Fingers crossed this might happen soon, if not, we are wrapped with our 7-week season (2 in June ) and 5 since we opened again in August.
Thanks to all who have supported us over the winter.
Hope to see you again soon, if not next season.
