Alongside the Link T bar -either Drop Off or Bear Flat (both blues). So if you fall off the Link t bar (the message is ....) you’ll need to be able to ski back down to the bottom ;)

someone got overexcited
while it might be true that the Perisher car park filled up quickly, I arrived at the Skitube car park at 9 and there was plenty of space

Totally awesome half day today at Smiggins, had a ball and avoided weekend crowds. My T-Bar avoidance overcome today, few solo rides at 8:30 whilst it was quiet and no one around then riding with other people after that. Much quicker than the chairlift at Smiggins :)
Today was spent lapping the various runs and lifts trying to picking the shortest lift lines (sometimes failing). Low visibility to start with, but improved, then sun arrived warming things up. Snow felt wet and slow all day today at least that’s what it felt like for me.
Today brings a close to this trip. Have another 5/6 days in September to finish the season staying on snow to make the most of my last days of the snow season and hopefully more Guthega and Mount P.
Currently 388 on the leaderboard and 56,800 vertical metres, not bad for 21 days at least for me:)
Another Epic Chair on the way from Ski Tube to Front Valley.

Well I found it surprisingly not so busy this morning on Mt P and centre valley. I didn’t queue more than around 2m maximum, and often skiied straight on. It sounds like everyone went to blue cow and guthega, which is somewhat predictable for a weekend crowd. I think the early fog probably scared some people away from Mt P as well.
I was actually surprised by the depth of the new snow first up. I measured 8cm mid mountain Eyre. However, it was heavy, and skiied out quickly to become chopped up sticky stuff, not so pleasant.

Great day to be back on the slopes today. Barely saw a line all day, with a few minutes wait for Olympic being the worst. Finally made it back out to Eyre, which was nice before it got too cut up as was Olympic and Sun Valley. Not sure where other than the snow stake they had 6cm, certainly not the bits of Mt P I skied! I would describe the snow as creamy in the sun and very hard packed in the shade.

The drought that is evident there caused some nasty fires in the northern Kosci NP and into the Namadgi NP in the ACT. 1983.

Guthega was the place to be in 82. Lots of carpark mud, site shed office, shovelling T bar tracks but some how there was quite a bit of skiing undertaken.
