Halfway through the season
Can you believe we’re halfway through the season? Conditions are running great, the corduroy’s been crisp, and the forecast is looking even better; there’s fresh snow on the cards and a weekend full of ways to play. Don’t pack away the thermals just yet; things are only ramping up from here.
Weather
Friday: Sunshine and bluebird skies, temps sitting pretty around 2°C.
Saturday: Starts sunny, but light snow threatening to fall in the afternoon. A brisk -1°C.
Sunday: light snow teasing all day with the chance of a proper snow dump Sunday night into Monday. Could be your “sick day” moment.

Food & Drink Highlights
The Mezz: If you’re feeling a little bit fancy, Mezz is where you want to lunch. A fresh, modern take on local flavours with an all-day menu, perfect for sharing or enjoying solo. Book ahead, dodge the lunch rush, and secure your plate (and a table). Book here!

Noodle Bar: Not-so-secret anymore, but still the best spot for a quick breather or the top mountain breakfast with a view.
Little Meg (Valley View Carpark): The fastest way to a morning coffee, flaky pastry, or a sneaky après beer.
Treble Cone’s Saturday BBQ & Poke Bowls: Lunch on the deck with a view—BBQ for the classics, poke bowls for a lighter bite. Fuel for another lap (or two).
TC Altitude Bar: Mountain views don’t get much better, cold drinks flow, and you’re 1600m above any office emails.
