My word you are right ! @chriscross Yes this is all total bollocks. Being locked up in your own abode indefinitely is not a plan anyone can adhere to for longer than 6-7 weeks. More people are going totally around the twist :-0 than are being admitted to ICU for CV19 :-(. My friend who is a psych. nurse in the Emergency Room at a major hospital says the same thing to me each week . We could be XC skiing at BB tomorrow morning !!! FFS!!. This is becoming very hard to take, two weekends in a row FFS!!. PLEASE Let me out , I am bleeding dying to go Nordic skiing.
I would say 5 -8 cms of snow and counting on the summit trail perhaps? . Continuous cover but a bit thin to crash on if you are a rusty XC skier coming back from long, long off season. https://mountbawbaw.com.au/
Yes, even half a meter will see nobody committed. Completely unaffected here ! Oobly oongar ! Goongar !
https://mountbawbaw.com.au/ Baw Baw is NOW OPEN to day visitors. If it snows properly later next week then XC skiing there is now possible .
Earlier, Victoria said it would relax travel curbs to boost tourism in its bushfire-struck towns, a key contributor to the southern state's coffers. Tourists will be able to stay overnight from June 1 in regional areas in the state, Premier Daniel Andrews said. Victoria will open up ski fields from June 22, with strict rules around hygiene and without shared facilities after a testing blitz showed low levels of community transmission. GAME ON!
