S.I. ski-field report
Most South Island skifields still need another dumping of snow before they can open and save two areas with ski plane and heli-ski facilities. Mount Hutt remains the only one open. The snow report received from the New Zealand Snow Centre yesterday was.—
Mount* Hutt: Base of 25cm; last fall 2cm June 20; packed powder on firm base; all facilities operating; chains required.
Tasman Glacier: Last fall June 17; firm wind-packed snow; ski plane facilities; conditions good. Ben Ohau: Heli-ski-ing; anticipate opening July 5. Turoa (North Island): Top of giant chair and valley rope tow operating Friday, Saturday, Sunday weather permitting. North Canterbury Heli-ski (Mount Terako): Last fall June 20; good wind-packed base; helicopter facilities operating; open subject to weather and numbers.
