Information
Good morning, we are open and currently sitting above the low-level cloud covering Canterbury this morning. We have very light breezes and clear views across the mountain.Our grooming team has groomed all main trails, and the best skiing conditions today will be on these runs. Yesterday's weather has caused the off-piste terrain to firm up overnight. If the sun warms things up later today, we may see the off-trail areas soften and become more enjoyable to ski.Please read all signage before entering any terrain, and don't forget to wear your helmet.Please be careful walking around in the car park and on stairs and decks - all surfaces will start off very icy up here this morning.We look forward to seeing you all very soon!
