HEAVY DEMAND FOR MOUNTAIN CABINS
With the 96-roomed Chateau Tongariro still not available for use, the demand for nearby cabin accommodation 3000 feet up the northern slopes of Ruapehu has been keen during the holiday season. Last summer ski-ing was impossible because of the amount of volcanic ash on the slopes of the mountain, and tramping was uncomfortable because of ash in the air. This year, however, conditions have been ideal and first-class ski-ing has been enjoyed from points above the Ruapehu Ski Club hut. Ski-ing conditions on the glacier are also stated to be good.
