Coronet Peak skiing on great form early season

The skiing and riding at Coronet Peak is awesome right now. The early season conditions are amazing with all lifts now open and a good base across the hill.

CP got 15cms of snow Friday night and Saturday was a powder day - those that got there early really benefited as it was still crappy down in Queenstown but clearing on the dot of 0900 at the top of the express, many people were still in bed and missed out on these fabulous conditions until it started to clear over QT and everybody could see it was going to an awesome day. Then it got busy up there.

My new Salomon Storms are a great all mountain ski - so far happy in all conditions from hard compacted piste thru chopped up powder and of course fresh powder - a pleasure to ride.

Mt Hutt is now open and have started the season with a great base of 100+ cms. It's looking like a good winter New Zealand wide.
