While winter this year has been wet, it has also been pretty mild in terms of freezing temperatures. But if all goes to plan, Mt Ruapehu will be opening both Turoa and Whakapapa ski fields this coming Saturday, to kick off the North Island ski season. Ohakune was bustling with activity just last Saturday, as thousands took to the Junction for the 21st birthday of Ohakune’s Mardi Gras. There is expected to be the usual strong turn out this coming weekend as well. A spokesperson for Mt Ruapehu said they are aiming to have both ski areas opened by Saturday and at the moment, everything was going to plan. After a fresh The mountain has been dusting of snow attacked with two reasonably big earlier in the snow storms to date, with month, Whakapapa’s base having 10cm of temperatures were low enough new snow and Turoa’s base to turn on the having 30cm of new snow just last snow machines. week.
