Well as I said I was at a rail jam, but I'm sick of rails now, I just want some pow and some big airs..
I'm getting my first proper skiing down on the 4th of July, I go to Wanaka to ski SnowPark and Treble Cone.. Gona go hard
RAL have taken 6 lifts off the mt. Ruapehu, the worst one being the Moro T-Bar which means 20% of the far west will be unreachable without hicking, which previously the Moro T would have given..

and they are gonna extend the high flyer down into the south east basin which also will be sick. it will hopefully add shitloads more terrain but the maoris are pretty sketchy about lettin the high flyer extension go thru apparently... its all in the latest ruapehu snow bulletin thing
