Thredbo is reporting over a meter at the top and 40cm at the bottom of the hill giving them the best early snow in 10 years. Thredbo is opening lifts early to make the most of the best pre season snowfalls in ten years. On Saturday June 3rd limited lifts are expected to operate including Snowgums Chair accessing the Crackenback Supertrail and Easy Does It Chairlift on Friday Flat, Thredbo's purpose built beginner area.

Mt Buller looks like a white winter wonderland. It began snowing Friday night and just hasn't stopped. They had 15cm of fresh snow overnight and there's now 75cm in the natural areas. The snowmakers have been in action pumping out the snow since 11am Sat morning. In the snowmaking areas they have more than 100cm. Snow is expected to continue to fall right through until Wednesday and the cold temperatures will remain all week - so it looks like there'll be no rest for their snowmakers.

Mt Buller will open this weekend for skiing and snowboarding. There will be 6 lifts operating including, BB1, BB2, Wombat, Howqua, Summit and Bull Run. This is only the third time in Buller's history we have begun operating lifts prior to opening weekend. Lift tickets will be $50 for adults and $33 for kids.
