Regional observations

Finally something is happening. Fresh snow deposition without getting smashed with prefrontal rain. The temps are below now and there’s a conveyor of westerly precip with two fronts (tonight and Friday) followed by thankfully another cold bump next week. So, my friends… get ready for this. Its cold, blustery and getting dryer by the day. Saturday should be the first day to enjoy the BC again since the first week of June. We will be back online here on Friday night with fresh observations from Bogong and Razorback check in again then. SM




Regional Outlook

IMPROVING / ONGOING / DETERIORATING

The weather might be deteriorating but the snow conditions are certainly on the mend. Like we said, two storms then a weekend of max pow pow flurries and fun times. Poor vis will be the real challenge, with the back of the range being the place to hunt a stash like east of Watchbed creek or the Cobungra drainages.

FALLS CREEK RESORT
BACKCOUNTRY CONDITIONS:

Still early days out on the BHP, firm packed on and off the XC trails. Not much available off piste and patchy at best. Although the gnar kids now love skiing bushes nowdays apparently… it’s a paradise for that. SM

MOUNT BOGONG
ALPINE NATIONAL PARK

BACKCOUNTRY CONDITIONS:

Poor travel conditions mixed with marginal cover below 1800m and patchy snow cover above has set the Bogong scene packing. We’ll check back in with Bogong after the 19th when the next meaningful snow event is tipped to take place.
