Snow report

Good morning!

The wind has eased, and we’re starting the day with clear conditions and a light westerly.

Temperatures are sitting at -5°C on the upper mountain and -1°C at the base.

The team is currently completing deicing on the High Noon Express and we’ll update once we’re close to opening.

There has been a light dusting of fresh snow overnight, and the trails are drying out. Conditions should be looking good for a great day of riding.

There is a cloud bank below the ski area, which has made the road a little slippery in places, so please take care on your way up.

We look forward to seeing you on the mountain!

Your safety at Tūroa

Your safety on the mountain is important to us, and we encourage all guests to make decisions that match their ability and experience. Please take time to check current conditions and review the information available before heading out, as weather and mountain conditions can change quickly throughout the day and across different areas of the ski field. Lift and trail information is provided to help you make informed choices, and additional signage, operational controls, or staff guidance may also be in place as conditions change.
