Fantastic Friday 😁
Ata mārie e te whānau. (Good morning to one & all.) Haere mai ki Kawarau Maunga. (Welcome to The Remarkables)
Fantastic Friday will be just that... FANTASTIC! Ka mau te pai! (That's excellent!)
The whetū (stars) are shining bright at this early hour of the morning and the forecast is looking great for today.
We're getting a break from the wind and the almighty Rā (sun) will be shining its rays down on us. Mīharo! (Awesome!) Be sure to wrap up warm as the temps are forecast to be makariri (cold).
There is some great skiing and riding to be had mountain wide. Please adhere to the Snow Responsibility Code and obey all signage across the maunga.
Most importantly, tākarokaro (have fun) and kia nui ō te rā 😎 (have a great day).

Getting Up The Mountain
We know you're all keen to hit the slopes this year so we've got some updates to make it easier for you to get up the mountain.
Know the Snow Code
Limit your speed in busy areas. Match your speed to surrounding skiers and riders and be prepared for others to make sudden changes in direction or speed.
Stay 5m from others. If less than 5m from others you must slow down. The faster you go the more space you must give others.
Give way to those downhill. Look before you leap. Snowboarders: take care turning onto your heel edge.
Only stop where you can be seen from above. Always look uphill before moving again. Only stop on the edge of trails or beside fixed objects.
Backcountry Advisory
If you decide to go skiing or snowboarding in the backcountry, you need to carry the right safety equipment. Avalanches happen for a reason, so it’s important to choose your terrain wisely. You are welcome to go and see Ski Patrol to get an up to date report on current conditions. Please be aware that our Ski Patrol do not patrol these areas and only venture here in the case of a known emergency. Our Ski Patrol does not manage intentions but please visit the Mountain Safety website for details on requirements to ensure a safe backcountry adventure.
Touring and Backcountry access at The Remarkables.
Alta Turquoise to Alta Lake is the designated safe ski touring route and is the only permitted ski touring route while ski patrol is conducting avalanche control work. Ski touring within the ski area boundary is dangerous and can result in serious injury so please respect all signage and closures. View our Ski Touring information.
