The weather yesterday turned out somewhat different from what the BoM had predicted and those who came up were rewarded with blue skies and snow in excellent condition. 4Site were able to scramble a groomer to tease the drifted snow into shape and set tracks around many of the trails and plenty of visitors were able to try them out.
Overnight the inner trails have been refreshed and the 10km & Paddy's have been groomed. A cold night has hopefully helped keep the trails into good condition and the forecast is holding true for clouds and some light snow so it should still be good skiing.
During daylight hours we are hoping to get a machine out on the Porcupine and Rock Creek trails so please take care if you are heading that way for a tour.
