The self proclaimed mountain of the gods. Pinnacle of club ski field skiing in NZ, meaning run by members for everyone. Tow rope from car park, keeping the place for ski lovers only, if new ask for a hand and bring leather gloves - after a few runs you get the knack. Some of the best NZ skiing, multiple runs finishing in a powder filled bowl. Lunch cooked for you, and youre expected to chip in to wash up, esp if staying for the night! Hot tub on site, beers delivered to the tub if youre sound! Some spot!
