Established in 1957, it is the only alpine resort in Australia to celebrate over 50 years of business, Thredbo is the essence of alpine Australia. With such a rich history it has created a culture and community unlike any other resort in the country. Thredbo Resort was recently announced the 'Best Australian Resort' at the 2015 World Ski Awards, the 2015 Out and About with Kids 'Best Ski Resort for Families' and 'Best Australian Ski Resort 2016' by the Luxury Travel Gold List Awards 2016. The village, situated at the base of the Australia’s highest mountain range, caters to over 4,000 guests in a wide range of accommodation types. With cafes and restaurants, hectares of riding terrain, Australia’s longest runs and a vertical drop close to double that of any other Australian Resort, it’s no surprise that Thredbo is a favourite for the experienced and first time skier, snowboarder, mountain biker and alpine adventurer. ACCOMMODATION Thredbo Resort Centre offers a Central Reservations service for accommodation in Thredbo, Jindabyne and the Thredbo Valley. 1300 020 589 (from outside Australia +61 2 6459 4294) www.thredbo.com.au – Follow links to accommodation BY AIR FLY DIRECT TO THE SNOWY MOUNTAINS REX REGIONAL EXPRESS Services have commenced between Sydney and the Snowy Mountains (Cooma).

If you’re cruising to the mountains from Sydney, once you’re on the Eastern Distributor there are only a few sets of traffic lights to Thredbo. From Melbourne, the fully sealed Kosciuszko Alpine Way is your scenic window as you wind through the spectacular Kosciuszko National Park. The roads are clear for most of the year, but when the big snowfalls hit, chains may be required for 2 wheel drives. Chains can be hired in Jindabyne and Khancoban. When hiring they will need to know your tyre size and be sure to ask them about any fitting tips. A tip from us is to practice fitting your chains and to pack an old blanket to use when fitting them. Eclectic For up to date road conditions please call the RTA traffic information line on 132 701. Select option 1 for road closures from storms, snow and ice etc and then option 1 again for Southern NSW. This will take you straight to the conditions for the Snowy Mountains. If in the local area tune to 2XL or 97.7 Snow FM for regular updates. The National Parks and Wildlife Service collect park use fees upon entry to the park. You can purchase your pass from the Entrance Station 13km before you get to Thredbo, the Snowy Region Visitors Centre in Jindabyne, the National Parks Visitors Centre in Khancoban, or the Thredbo Information Centre. Distance & driving times from major cities Sydney 5 ‐ 6.5 hours 500km (approx.) 5 Notice of Event ‐ 2016 Thredbo ANC SBX Races Melbourne 5.5 ‐ 7 hours 500km (approx.) Canberra 2.5 hours 180km (approx.) DRIVING FROM SYDNEY Follow the Hume Highway from Sydney then just south of Goulburn take the Federal Highway and travel south to Canberra. This section of the trip is mainly on a divided road. From Canberra follow the signs to the Monaro Highway to Cooma. This road then joins the Kosciuszko Rd that you follow through the town of Berridale and onto Jindabyne. Just past Jindabyne Town Centre take a left onto the Alpine Way to Thredbo. You will go through the National Park Entrance Station, and from there it is only 13km to Thredbo and snow riding bliss. DRIVING FROM MELBOURNE Follow the Hume Highway from Melbourne to Wodonga. Take the Murray Valley Highway’s Wodonga/Tallangatta exit. After passing Wodonga follow the signs to Tallangatta, again on the Murray Valley Highway. You pass through the village of Koetong onto Corryong. Drive through Corryong and take the “Khancoban” turn‐off on your right. Once in Khancoban you are only 76kms from Thredbo. From here the drive is truly spectacular as you take in awesome views of the Main Range and discover the beauty of the Kosciuszko National Park. The roads are clear for most of the year but when a big snowfall hits, chains are required for 2‐wheel drive vehicles. An alternate route from Melbourne is the Kosciuszko Alpine Way, which lets you experience the wonder of the Snowy Mountains as you wind along the great Murray River. Your journey will take you through quaint country towns dotted with historic huts, homesteads and buildings. You can marvel at the power of the Snowy Scheme, take in views of the Main Range, Wymah Punt over Lake Hume, lakes Eucumbene and Jindabyne, and even freshen up with a dip in the Murray itself. The diverse wildlife of the Kosciuszko National Park makes this experience truly memorable. CAR PARKING IN THREDBO Convenience is what staying in Thredbo is all about and car parking is just that, convenient. Thredbo has over 2,500 car park spaces with both day and overnight parking available. It is free to park your car in Thredbo whether staying overnight or here for the day. (You will still need to pay the National Parks entry fee). 6 Notice of Event ‐ 2016 Thredbo ANC SBX Races .

  • A Century of Storms, Fire, Flood and Drought in New South Wales, Bureau Of
    The Australian Bureau of Meteorology celebrated its centenary as a Commonwealth Government Agency in 2008. It was established by the Meteorology Act 1906 and commenced operation as a national organisation on 1 January 1908 through the consoli- dation of the separate Colonial/State Meteorological Services. The Bureau is an integrated scientific monitoring, research and service organisation responsible for observing, understanding and predicting the behaviour of Australia’s weather and climate and for providing a wide range of meteorological, hydrological and oceanographic information, forecasting and warning services. The century-long history of the Bureau and of Australian meteorology is the history of the nation – from the Federation Drought to the great floods of 1955, the Black Friday and Ash Wednesday bushfires, the 1974 devastation of Darwin by cyclone Tracy and Australia’s costliest natural disaster, the Sydney hailstorm of April 1999. It is a story of round-the-clock data collection by tens of thousands of dedicated volunteers in far-flung observing sites, of the acclaimed weather support of the RAAF Meteorological Service for southwest Pacific operations through World War II and of the vital role of the post-war civilian Bureau in the remarkable safety record of Australian civil aviation. And it is a story of outstanding scientific and technological innovation and international leadership in one of the most inherently international of all fields of science and human endeavour. Although headquartered in Melbourne, the Bureau has epitomised the successful working of the Commonwealth with a strong operational presence in every State capital and a strong sense of identity with both its State and its national functions and responsibilities.
