i just got back from 2 days at thredbo myself (and spent a day at perisher on friday). yeah, is looking pretty good for this time of year. it was pretty icy though, and the 5-10cm they had on sunday was much needed, though it didnt really help its cause too much. love thredbo myself.... just cause its nice and (consistantly) steep . and it doesnt seem to get too crowded. s/freak..... the new 8 seater is a crowd buster... it should have been there 5 years ago! but it only gives you access to front valley -

Lama replied to snowboard_freak's topic in Snow talk, trip reports, Japan avalanche & backcountry
