The (lack of) Snow thread 11-Aug-2005 At 7:59:00 PM PN

Well that was a kickarse day at Thredders...

The high winds which kept the Kosciuszko Express and all the T-Bars (except Antons) on wind hold throughout the day produced some excellent powder stashes all around the mountain, particularly the edges of the Supertrail from Snogums and off the far side of the Cruiser (Merritts). Bloody cold all day, we froze our arses off on the long ride back up Snogums but warmed up with non-stop thigh-pumping powder carving on the supertrail, maching it out from Lovers Leap to the Terminal each time - "The Chinese Downhill!" to finish off every run.

The boys on teles held their own but were no match for the lads on fixed heels today(including yours truly). More snow expected kids, get up there in the next few days before it rains/warms up - Sunday will be superb if the forecast is accurate

I'll be in the hot tub with a cool beer, followed by schnapps, nursing tired legs, if anyone needs to contact me
