Mt Hutt has had some wild weather and road conditions this week. It can be easy to get frustrated - we all just want to go skiing. But we must never forget that these are mountains and they belong to nature.

Robert MacFarlane said it best in "Mountains of the Mind":

"At bottom, mountains, like all wildernesses, challenge our complacent conviction - so easy to lapse into - that the world has been made for humans by humans.

Most of us exist for most of the time in worlds which are humanly arranged, themed and controlled. One forgets that there are environments which do not respond to the flick of a switch or the twist of a dial, and which have their own rhythms and orders of existence.

Mountains correct this amnesia.

By speaking of greater forces than we can possibly invoke, and by confronting us with greater spans of time than we can possibly envisage, mountains refute our excessive trust in the man-made. They pose profound questions about our durability and the importance of our schemes. They induce, I suppose, a modesty in us"

This is just a timely reminder regarding training with regards to the mountain status on your regular training days.

If the mountain is open then training is on.

If the mountain is on hold and later opens, then training is on as soon as it is possible to get up the mountain and onto the slopes. (Training will still finish at 3pm).

If the mountain is closed then there is no training that day.

If you decide on a hold day that it is going to take too long and you decide to go home instead that is ok, we understand. We will still be up there to provide training once it is possible.

Training each day depends on the conditions, and may be free skiing (not in gates) if the conditions or other circumstances do not allow gate training.

We (the coaches) only know the mountain status at the same time as it goes on the website and is available for everyone, we do not have any internal updates or intel to the mountain status, and we read the same report off of the same webpage. The fastest way for you to get an update on the mountain status is via the Mt Hutt / NZ Ski website, for all up to date mountain information. ... See MoreSee Less

It’s all on today with silky first tracks cord from 8am this morning, we also have our bouncy castle, Alpine Spa, Corona bar open as conditions allow. Firm conditions have created a sliding hazard off-trail but there should be some silky snow up for grabs on sunnier aspects in the afternoon if these winds ease back. ... See MoreSee Less
