Hi all! Wondering where the best snowsports places are to buy gear (new or used, doesn't matter) near Falls Creek? We have some old boards already but we're in need of snowboard boots, helmets, goggles etc.
We're already on the mountain, but we'll be doing grocery trips to Albury regularly. Is...
Hi all,
Have started turning my mind to the 2021 winter season and planning a potential trip down to visit the Victorian ski resorts (covid permitting). As my wife and I both have a large surplus of leave entitlement, we are thinking of taking all of August 2021 off and towing our very small...
Now that our trip to Hakuba is disappearing into the past, we are starting to get our next ski trip sorted for this coming southern winter.

On Sunday I did a short & relaxed trip out of Falls - about 18km.
I left a bit late - leaving Windy Corner around 10.00 and was back at the resort at 4.30. I cheated - Falls Express lift on the way out and Ruined Castle lift on the way in.
I had a heavy day pack around 10kg, because I was...
I'm keen to work at Falls Creek during the 2019 snow season but I'm not sure whether I should aim to work for the resort as a liftie or something, or if I should aim to work for one of the businesses on the mountain (I have hospitality experience and could work as a bartender/waitress/kitchen...

Pretty much all in the title, we're looking to head to the snow in the first week of October for a couple of days (I'm aware this is the last week of the ski resorts being open), and I'm wondering where you guys will think the best snow will be at the end of the season. I'm pretty much an...
