The weather during last week was pretty ‘special’ – gusts up to 140km/h & torrential rain meaning Wed/Thu were pretty much a write-off as far as skiing was concerned. The rain turned to snow around 1am on Friday morning, and by all accounts the skiing was pretty good on Friday arvo. We arrived that evening
After yet another ‘day of the week’ on Friday, due to Nicole ‘Chucking a Snowie’ at Hotham on Monday, another day off was going to be a stretch, so we had to content ourselves seeing the various Facebook posts from our friends and look forward to the forecast sunny weather. It was particularly gratifying to
Quick weekend report posted from the Glenrowan Maccas while we wait for one of our mates coming on our Feathertop trip. We bounced out of bed early on Saturday and were the first public on the Bull Run chair, while there had been further snow on Friday night it was definitely a case of ‘ya
Couldn’t believe my eyes when I woke up to blue skies. Rushed out the door, there were clouds around the area so I thought it would be short lived but it stayed blue all day. With Standard open the start of the ski day is far more palatable as I now no longer need to

Looks like we’re in for a bit more snow. As we know Buller is in desperate need of snow, and the chatter I’ve heard from Falls and Hotham is that while they are far from dire straits a nice little top up will be just what the doctor ordered, as their lower, sun facing aspects
Blue skies are a wonderful thing. The sunlight is energising, and instantly improves the mood of all basking underneath. They also have the effect of temporarily distracting you from the reality that it’s now late July, the snow is really rather crap, meanwhile all the other resorts are doing quite nicely.

After a truly revolting week of skiing, where Buller lost roughly one third of its natural snow cover – down to 26cm from 39cm – it was time to put the rain behind us and head up for the weekend with the promise of new snow in the forecast. Saturday turned out to be a
Yesterday was a ripper – Instagrams hashtagged with #aussieskier were rolling in from all 5 major Australian resorts and they were stunning. aussieskier.com/social & our Facebook Page were inundated with bluebird shots, of note were some sent from Hotham’s Gotcha/Orchard/Extreme Area literally within minutes of it opening for the season.
