SNOW…

Finally snow has fallen across the Australian Ski Resorts with Thredbo recording 30cm of fresh snow on Wednesday. Its incredible how quickly the resorts spring to life with a little TLC.
The forecast was a little worrying early in the week with over 80ml of rain falling on Tuesday. The puddle on Friday Flat was big enough to warrant building an ark. But sure enough the temperature dropped as predicted and we were blessed with the natural phenomena we have all come to know as snow.
The sun eventually began to emerge on Friday and I was joined by Ben Hansen to embark on our adventure into Stanley’s Bowl. Stanley’s is subject to favourable wind conditions that deposits the snow into the East facing Bowl. The result was surprisingly deep. We took a couple of snaps before trekking over shrubs and trees for 45minutes to get back to the lift. Worth it! Check out a few of the shots.
