Blizzard like conditions in Falls Creek over the weekend. 30cms
of fresh snow fell last night & yesterday giving an average base
of 154cms. Wild & snowy conditions set to continue during Monday,
Tuesday & Wednesday with high winds the limiting factor.
Superpipe opened
The Falls Creek Super pipe opened late last
week, rumoured to be the largest & longest in Australia. Film maker
Rob Norman accompanied by Australian skiing superstars Woody Bouma,
Ben 'Skinner' Murphy, Oddy Graham, LCP's Jon McMurray & French bad
boys P.G. & Pierre arrived at Lakeside Lodge in anticipation of
a fat pipe session. With a window of good weather opening up on
Saturday, the boys got what they came for, putting on a display
of epic proportions for the Falls Creek masses
