Long Range Weather Forecast – Looking Good for 2010!
Pete 'The Frog' Taylor's Snowatch website has released details of the long term forecast for the ski season, June and July are pointing towards being wetter than normal with the El Nino weakening. 

Heavier snowfalls should increase dramatically in early July with snowfalls which could be the best for some time.

We should still see some good snowfalls in August and  September that should keep the cover decent enough to have skiing and boarding continuing up to the closing weekend.

Full details are at Snowatch, thanks Pete!

Happy Valley T-Bar Extended
The load area of the T-bar is being moved 90m downhill to link up skiable terrain covered by Perisher’s snowmaking system.

Although we didnt get approval until quite late, our team and Doppelmayr have worked brilliantly and now have both new towers up and the drive Station relocated.

There are a few more major jobs to go including relocating some snow guns, transformer and rehabilitating the site… but the team has made great progress in two weeks.

The photo shows the Perisher Crane lifting the drive station into place, more pics and information are on our Perisher Blog.
 
Snow Fences at Guthega
  We’re really excited to have a heap of new snow fences constructed in Guthega over summer… Fences in the area between Possums and Bloody Mary will catch lots of snow to keep both runs looking great.

Pic shows one of the new fences at Guthega.
New Groomer has arrived
The new Bison X Snow Groomer arrived in Smiggins this week! It will be the main machine building our parks this year.

Matt Klemm our grooming manager did some time building features at the X Games in Aspen this year in one of these, so no doubt we’ll be ready to go as soon as the snow falls!
