facing slopes to maximize the winter sun hours.

to be had by skiers and snow boarders on the tree
clad slopes of Mt Crackenback. Ski touring fans and
snow shoe enthusiasts will revel in the breathtaking
scenery of the back country. Beginners and less experienced
skiers are also well, catered for on the gentler
slopes of Merrits and the dedicated beginner area
of Friday Flat.
