Hi bowgo
FIRST TRACKS OPENS AT CORONET PEAK
First Tracks is back! From today, weather permitting, First Tracks begins at 8.00am and is a great way to start the day - hit the hill before the crowds and ski or ride on freshly groomed trails. There really is nothing like a bit of corduroy or fresh snow to get your day started and why not follow your early turns with a delicious cooked breakfast in the Coronet Peak Brasserie? To give it a go if you are not a First Tracks season pass holder, visit the Queenstown Snow Centre on Duke Street or the Coronet Peak Brasserie on the hill to purchase an add on to your regular season pass for one day only (numbers are limited). To ensure your friends also experience the buzz of skiing/riding at dawn, these ad hoc First Track tickets can also be purchased by your day visitor guests provided they have a day pass valid for the day in question.
HEIDI'S HUT OPENS AT CORONET PEAK
For those seeking a quieter alternative to the buzz and vibe of JSD's Lodge at Coronet Peak, we have opened Heidi's Hut at Rocky Gully. This European style restaurant was renovated in 2007 and boasts a fabulous new menu comprising breakfast, soups, pastas and gourmet pizzas as well as a full bar. Heidi's Hut is a lovely intimate environment and is a great place to stop on the hill when you need to refresh and unwind.
THE REMARKABLES IS OPEN
All systems are go at The Remarkables with great skiing and riding on groomed trails in the Alta and Sugar Bowl areas. 2 new conveyor lifts in the beginner's area have increased learning facilities and provide an awesome space for first timers and families to have fun on the snow. The UP & GO Terrain Park is open with 6 features set up to jib on, and is looking sweet! Watch this space or visit www.parklife.co.nz for information on the new and improved features coming soon. Finally don't forget about The Stash .... official opening scheduled for Saturday July 26th with some top pro riders and wicked tunes in attendance on the day.
THE REMARKABLES EXPRESS
New to The Remarkables this year is The Remarkables Express shuttle service running from Queenstown to The Remarkables, stopping in Frankton and at the bottom of the access road only. Our brand new, 4x4, environmentally friendly buses are the easiest, quickest and most comfortable way to get to The Remarks, with pre-booking seats essential. Contact the Queenstown Snow Centre for more details.
MT HUTT GETS DUMPED ON
Over the weekend Mt Hutt experienced a HUGE snowfall receiving over 50cm of new snow taking the base to 85cm. Trails are in pristine condition having been groomed overnight, transforming Mt Hutt into a winter wonderland. There is some awesome skiing and riding to be had at Mt Hutt, so make sure you get out there and experience the great conditions.
Have a good one and hope to see you on the mountains sometime soon.
