Well the mountain has pretty much been closed since Sunday. It is now Thursday and I am betting a bit stir crazy. There is only so many things you can do around town before you get very bored of town. The weather has become awful on the mountain lately and winds are getting close to 60mph and visibility is around 100 feet or so. So in short you can no see hear or move if you were up there but we are getting some good snow. The reported base is around 3 meters of packed snow which will add up to a great spring with tons of terrain to ride.
I am thinking about traveling to the south island soon to do some riding down there and see a few different ski fields and even see a few mates of mine for a good ski session down in the south. But we shall see if that trip happens or not.
Well this is the weather as of last week, It was beautiful and just an amazing time to be working on snow. Now you couldn't even see those flags being that close due to the poor vis and wind.
I have finished my last day working for Atomic and Salomon but hope to come back next season and work for them again. They have been great to work for and I am looking forward to any other involvement I have with them.
Cheers and now just waiting to get back to the states and back to my friends at the shoe. Its going to be a great winter this year.
