The sky and snow turning orange @thredboresort this afternoon with a dust storm being blown across the Snowy Mountains by strong NNW winds.

We had a light top of around 5cm earlier in the week but it's back to spring conditions now with warm bluebird days. There was a slight freeze across the resorts overnight but it softened up fairly quickly with these warm temperatures. Watch on for all the details.

Presenting the final New Zealand snow report for the season! However, there’s still good snow and plenty of events to enjoy all the way through mid October. Watch on for all the details! 🇳🇿✌️

We had a lot of entries to win our all inclusive Shizukuishi Cat Skiing Holiday but unfortunately there could only be one winner and that is... Chris Farrelly

If you missed out and still want to head to Japan next year, check out our deals on Mountainwatch Travel!

It looks like a magnificent spring day at @hothamalpineresort. The base has had another good freeze overnight so conditions are firm but the groomed runs have enough texture on the surface for good turns from the get go.
Find out how conditions are at each resort with our snow reports through our story.

The rain finally turned to snow yesterday afternoon with 5-10cms falling and there is a fresh layer of dry, winter snow on a firm base.

Steaming sulphuric hot pools and plenty of snow, Manza Onsen is home to two Japanese icons. Read our story for why you should ski Manza Onsen on your next trip to Japan.

Put your hands up if you want to chase powder at @squawalpine with us on our 2020 Ikon Tour. Spots are filling up fast. Get in quick. See the details through our story.

We got a very nice top up of 30-50cm over the weekend across the resorts which has set us up for a great end to the season. Temperatures have now risen and we're seeing some good spring skiing on offer. Watch on for all the details of how conditions are looking at each resort.

Some video game action from yesterday at @thredboresort’s week long ‘Holy Bowly’ event. The course will be open to the public this weekend and it’s not to be missed! 🎥 @thredboresort @snowboyproductions

A bluebird day at @perisher_resort ☀️ 🐦 ❄️ There is a good cover of snow across the resort, firm on the lower slopes after an overnight freeze while there is dry packed snow at higher elevations. Check out today’s snow reports on Mountainwatch through our story.
