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.

A perfect day in the Central Harris Mountains today, sunshine no wind and cold, winter powder thanks to a freezing level at 1300 metres @harrismountainsheliski @einbebendroht skier @gromskibum

It's another exciting week to be in @queenstownnz and @lakewanakanz with great spring skiing and plenty going on across the resorts. The Winter Games NZ have wrapped up but the Jossi Wells Invitational kicks off as well as the Peak To Peak multi-sport race and more. Watch on for all the details!

Summer snowfall in Switzerland over the weekend 🤨😳 📷 @muottasmuragl

The Holy Bowly set up at Thredbo is looking like a heap of fun. The event is going down until the 15th September, with the course open for public shredding on the 14th & 15th! Who wants to shred this?

Check out today's Thredbo snow report on Mountainwatch.

It's another good day in the mountains with more fresh snowfall overnight. Spring conditions will creep back in tomorrow but this was perfect spring top up to get us through the rest of the season! Find out how conditions are at each resort with our snow reports in our story.

A bluebird day @theremarkables yesterday for the First event of the New Zealand Junior Freeride Tour, a FWT sanctioned three-event tour that is a showcase of future big mountain talent #theremarkables #bluebird #queenstownnz

@hothamalpineresort has woken up to 24cm and it is still snowing steadily. Check out the snow reports to see how conditions are across the resorts. Link in our story.
