Season Info

The season typically runs from late June through September, with the high altitude basin often capturing substantial snowfall from Canterbury's legendary southerly storms. The unique geography of Allan's Basin and Palmer Lodge Bowl creates excellent snow retention, particularly in the upper bowls. Mid-winter powder days here rank among New Zealand's finest, while spring brings corn snow and spectacular alpine conditions.
