The moment has arrived for the commencement of the ultimate and most exceptional chairlift at Falls Creek, coinciding perfectly with the onset of the school holidays. The Summit chair at Falls Creek holds the esteemed position of being the second most favoured lift among local riders, trailing only behind the renowned International Poma.

Thanks to a generous accumulation of 71cm of snow within the past week, the mountain operations team has been able to diligently groom the summit area. Emerging from the upper village, the summit lift ferries riders to the pinnacle of the resort, offering an ideal means for repeatedly traversing some of the finest intermediate and advanced trails available at the resort.

During our visit to Falls Creek last weekend, we dedicated a substantial amount of time to trekking up to the summit chair's peak in search of fresh turns. Observing the extensive layer of ice encasing the lift, one can only imagine the countless hours exerted by the lift attendants to prepare it for operation.
