Remarks has got 20cm, Coronet has got 10cm and so has Hutt

exciting, there's also been snow up on the roads in Christchurch. I heard about that. Lets hope the snow keeps coming, not long now at all. When does Mt Ruapehu open?

Mt Ruapehu warning
7:00AM Saturday May 03, 2008

Mt Ruapehu is showing signs it could erupt without warning, prompting a warning to climbers of the volcano's heightened risk.

Readings from the lake have shown a heightened magma input, and readings from the air above the lake showed an increase in released volcanic gas.

Department of Conservation scientist Dr Harry Keys told the Weekend Herald yesterday several months of volcanic information had lead scientists to say "hang on, something unusual is happening".

That looks like some fun terrain. I'll make it down there sometime. I hope you guys have a great winter there.

This thread is making me miss everyone from Winter Park but I'm sure they're happy to be back home in Oz and NZ. They don't have to repeat things so that us locals here can understand. I do have fun celebrating Australia Day and New Zealand Day.
