xc skiing

Mt. Stirling at present has Fair XC skiing above 1500 M. on the upper trails. The trail report is hard to find for a dummy like me when I visit their website. https://www.mtstirling.com.au/snow-report/ I am waiting for deeper cover above 1450M. to form so I can...

Your correspondent in the field finally obtained some proper relief from SDS.( skiing deprivation syndrome typified by a flat and restless personal state and a lack of joy in the daily humdrum of life). After seeing the snow cameras and the forecast I packed the car with...

Your correspondent in the field got up at 4.40 am to drive to Lake Mtn. to XC ski early. I arrived at LM car park just after dawn . A group of brain dead rev heads and hoons were doing wheel spins in their sports cars on the boiler plate bullet proof ice surface...

My Friend the G man has purchased some new Fischer NNN BC boots. He is looking for some 175 cm BC XC PB skis. If they come with NNN BC bindings then even better. :). If you have some you don't want or you know another skier who has a spare set then please contact me...

@beefa skiing and I both took the rock hoppers out for a 10-11 km XC ski today at Lake Mtn.. We should have taken the wide BC XC skis for floatation on full deep complete cover. We would have sunk into the snow and ground to a halt on the mild descents anyway...

Moveable classic XC ski skin bindings. WOW.

Hi. What are the XC ski options in South Korea like? That country hosted the winter Olympics which is a good sign for the XC skiing aspect of things. Has anyone done any Nordic skiing in South Korea? South Korea seems to be doing OK with the plague, so far ...

Your correspondent in the field went to scout out another possible route to reach Keppel 's hut and The Upper Trails of Lake Mtn.. This route is arguably a quicker way to reach Keppel's hut than via Lady Talbot drive from Mt. Margaret Gap. It starts from the...

I just thought I would jump in early and start the ball rolling for the 2020 XC ski season at Mt. Stirling . I hope the moderators do not object.

Ms.Bunn's Modelling looks good at present for a XC ski day at Mt. St.Gwinear in the Baw Baw N.P. or elsewhere on Sat. May 23rd http://www.janebunn.net/mt-baw-baw http://www.janebunn.net/lake-mountain http://www.janebunn.net/mt-stirling May 24th could be skiable too.

That snow is still there, yet to be skied and taunting us all who are staying at home due to the lockdown. It is not always that you can ski from TBJ to the top and back.Most usually it is an August occurrence .

May 4th 2020. The best conditions we will never ski and /or will possibly see from one snow storm in 2020. Tank hill, still looking the part and untracked!

Still the best snowfall we will never XC ski this year between Dinner Plain and Hot Ham !

http://www.janebunn.net/falls-creek http://www.janebunn.net/mt-stirling Tuesday 3/12/19 could be a rock hopper XC ski day in summer here in VIC. with fresh tracks. I am watching this and I am quite prepared to rise rather early on Tuesday 3/12/19 and drive a fair distance to get...

http://www.janebunn.net/mt-hotham The modelling is now doubling the estimated amount of snow predicted to fall at Hot Ham. This could be amazing or just a novelty in terms of XC skiing in VIC. in NOV. Other Vic . ski location will do well too..... Falls Creek and Baw Baw and even Lake Mtn. will...

Hi Your correspondent in the field rose at 5 am today, Tuesday 17th /9/19 . I went to collect @Carola from her abode just after 6 am. We drove off towards Moe but the congestion in the Metro zone was already building at that hour. We finally reached the MSG car...

Hi. Your correspondent in the field having exceeded the planned 20 days on XC planks this season is approaching ski burn out. However the prospect of fresh deep snow cover at MSG and the BB plateau was sufficient to motivate me for a spring ski day. I got up at 5...

Hi. Your correspondent in the field has been away on another successful XC ski trip .I have just returned.I snow camped at J.B. hut (in the Dinner Plain/ Mt. Hotham area) for three nights and I did a lot of Nordic skiing.It is an exceedingly long drive to Dinner Plain via...

Your correspondent in the field dropped everything and headed for " The Buff " following the 4 day blizzard that has recently transformed SE Australia's ski locations for Nordic skiing. @Carola (a.k.a Ms. C.) has been interested in trying out snow camping and the Stone...
