POWDER DAY

OVER HALF A METRE OF SNOW. Absolutely amazing conditions on both mountains after another 16cm overnight plus the snow guns were fired up. Mt Baw Baw Alpine Resort is serious about snow and with current conditions, zero crowds (literally 20 people on mountain yesterday and 10 of those were just drinking coffee, quoted by a return customer) you'd be mad not to chuck a sicky or book in the weekend. Currently 55cm natural, 79cm man made, 5/7 lifts, $35 tickets. Mt St Gwinear has amazing conditions. Both toboggan runs open, excellent skiing from the car park.

Powder day

The forecasts were right with 13cm of fresh dry powder falling in the last 24 hours......and there's still heaps more to come with predictions of snow as low as 400m. Currentlt Baw Baw has 45cm natural and 69cm man made. 5/7 lifts AMAZING conditions out there today.

St Gwinear will have about 20cm at the car park. 50-60cm up top. Expect excellent fresh snow for cross country skiing

Fitting chains today.......

Incoming snow alert

HUGE totals predicted with a thumping great low pressure system hovering around for the next 5 days bringing snow down as far as 400m in parts (according to predictions). Snow has begun to fall at Baw Baw overnight and looks set to continue.

So far 2cm fresh snow has helped maintain averages after a warm start and rain yesterday. 37cm natural and 61cm man made, 5/7 lifts turning and 2 toboggan runs open. Fitting chains at chain bay 2. Please follow advise of signs and fit as directed.

St Gwinear still has enough snow for the kids and cross country skiing. Will update totals via facebook and Instagram after Parks staff call it in.

 

A week of snow expected should top things up nicely just in time.

As it stands

Baw Baw Has 37cm natural ave. 61cm man made ave. 5/7 lifts

ST G should have 8-10cm at the car park. Both toboggan runs open at his stage but expect one to be shut due to poor cover. Will update if conditions change

Another beauty

Not much change from yesterday with total much the same.

Baw Baw has 40cm average natural depth, 64cm man made. 5/7 lifts. 2 toboggan runs open and very good snow play.

St Gwinear has 15cm at the car park. 2 toboggan runs open. St'G Food van and Parks vic staff on site.

Huge totals being thrown around for snow fall early next week will keep spring conditions excellent (if they come true)

Spring????? Who cares

With 40cm natural average depth 5/7 lifts and 64cm man made in key areas Mt Baw Baw Alpine Resort doesnt care that spring has sprung. Heaps in the forecast as well so spring snow is going strong.

Mt St Gwinear has 15-20cm at the car park, 2 toboggan runs open as well as Parks staff, Donuts at St G' Food Van and excllent skiing plus it looks likely to get more snow in a couple of days with freeze levels down as low as 800m it just keeps getting better

Perfection

Both mountains have excellent snow cover at the moment.

Baw Baw has 44cm natural. 64cm man made. Snow making and grooming overnight keeping it all in tip top shape. 5/7 lifts turning and heaps of snowplay and tobogganing to be had

Saint Gwinear has 20cm at the car park, both toboggan runs open and parks staff in attendance. 60cm at the rock shelter so icy conditions this morning for skiing which will soften throughout the day.

More snow in the forecast for Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday

More snow overnight

Tis the season that keeps on giving. Overnight snowfall has freshened up the already excellent conditions and means totals have remained the same after a warm day on mountain.

Baw Baw has 44cm average natural depth and 64cm average man made. 5/7 lifts are turning and conditions are generally rated very good to excellent.

St Gwinear still has over 20cm at the car park and 40+cm on average. Excellent skiing across the top and both toboggan runs are open

No crowds......Awesome snow

There is nobody around and the snow is seasons best. Get up here and beat the weekend rush.

Baw Baw has 44cm natural average depth and the snow guns have been pumping in key areas again so man made averages 64cm. There are 5/7 lifts turning, both toboggan runs and awesome snow play. Don't forget the husky's for a perfect trip to the snow.

St Gwinear has an average of 25cm at the car park, 45cm average across the top. Excellent groomed snow on the main trail and fantastic snowplay......again no crowds and awesome Donuts from the St'G food van

Bluebird

Baw Baw has been pumping the guns over night so on top of the amazing natural snowfall over the weekend they have 47cm natural and 62cm man made. Most runs are rated EXCELLENT as well as the toboggan runs. Some big features have been opened up on Painted Run for the adventurous

St Gwinear has over 30cm at the car park and amazing conditions across the top for cross country skiing. The food van will be open as well as the Parks Vic office. Amazing conditions today.
