Great snow down under
« on: June 26, 2007, 11:39:46 pm »
Hi Guys,

Well it's a great start to the season in Australia.  Snowed a bunch last week and last night Thredbo got 40cm which is great for here.  They prepare the runs in summer and cut that grass like a pool table, so you don't need a lot of snow before you are set to go.  Stiil early season yet but things are shaping up and Head SS are waxed and ready to go.

All the best to you up in the northern hemisphere -  I am looking at Taos and Colorado in January.  Very difficult to beat Taos for those long, winding speed runs.

All the best

Brendan

Brendan...send some pictures so we can all drool....happy to hear one of our ski brothers is out turning them.

So what's the snow like...wet, dry, icy?  What about the temps?

So..Colorado and Taos in Jan....sounds great. Hoping we're having huge snow falls by then.

Also, dont' forget our Real SKier outing dec 15-20th at Steamboat. If you can pop over then, there's tons of great skiing in Colorado that time of year.

All the best to ya down under!
