Last Updated: Sat 30 May 07:56 AM
Cloudy, with showers from mid-morning. Northerlies dying away.
What a cracker of an opening day yesterday! The vibes were so high that we've decided to open BOTH sides of the dual magic carpets for skiing and riding. This means more space to brush up on your winter turns, or just tick off your bucket list item of skiing in MAY. Our incredible groomer Rob has pushed out some snow piles to move the sledding lane to where our beginner carpet is, so it's all still go up here today.
If you're coming up for snow play, head on up the carpets as we've created a flat area for you and the family to make memories.
* Please note, we will not be permitting BYO sleds, as we have a max capacity of sledding to control the safety of our little (and big) sliders.
Winter Made Early will operate 29 May–12 June from 10am-3pm.

Ski Touring Access
Coronet Peak is a 24 hour, seven days per week operation with multiple natural and operational hazards. Ski touring within the ski area boundary is dangerous and can result in serious injury so please respect all closures.
With our current snow conditions, ski touring will be permitted during operational hours from Greengates base via lower and upper Greengates run. Please stick to the side of the run and beware of downhill traffic.
Ski touring is NOT PERMITTED between 6PM & 6AM on the central mountain and 4.30pm - 6am Skiers LEFT of ROCKY GULLY. All these areas of the mountain are winch groomed on a daily basis with activity concentrated around the M1.
Getting up the mountain this season:
We know you're all keen to hit the slopes this year so we've got some updates to make it easier for you to get up the mountain. Please find these through the below link.
Learn More
Limit your speed in busy areas. Match your speed to surrounding skiers and riders. Be prepared for others to make sudden changes in direction or speed.
Stay 5m from others. If less than 5m from others you must slow down. The faster you go the more space you must give others.
Give way to those downhill. Look before you leap. Snowboarders: take care turning onto your heel edge.
Only stop where you can be seen from above. Always look uphill before moving again. Only stop on the edge of trails or beside fixed objects.
Backcountry Terrain
The Back Bowls are steep Expert Terrain. As such they have an increase in hazard, including avalanche. The Back Bowls may be closed due to Avalanche Hazard Mitigation or inclement weather as these conditions heighten risk in this terrain. Back Bowls are closed at night and assessed for opening daily.
Backcountry Advisory
If you decide to go skiing or snowboarding in the backcountry you need to carry the right safety equipment. Avalanches happen, so it’s important to choose your terrain wisely. Coronet Peak Back Bowls is managed carefully by Coronet Peak Patrol. When the Back Bowls sign indicates the terrain is "open" you may proceed with caution into this area. Out on the far col you will see a red and an orange Ski Area Boundary Sign on the rock which indicates the limits of Coronet Peak ski area and the back-bowls. If you venture past this sign the terrain is highly hazardous, prone to avalanches with cliffs and ice.
Let People Know Before You Go
It is good practice to provide a contact person with details of your backcountry trip. You can also pop into our Ski Patrol office at any time during opening hours to check on local conditions and advise patrol of your intentions. Please be aware that our Ski Patrol do not patrol outside the Ski Area Boundary and only venture here in the case of a known emergency. You need to be well prepared and self-sufficient with all the necessary safety equipment and the knowledge to use it.
Please visit the Mountain Safety website for details on what is required to ensure a safe backcountry adventure.
