Turoa - slippery when wet

We went up to Turoa ski field on Mt Ruapehu this morning. Since we didn't have any chains we went to the 11km car park and took the shuttle up.








It was lots of fun despite the weather being pretty poor. Kien was thrilled just to be able to play in the snow.















There were remnants of a snowman someone had built but all its bits and pieces scattered everywhere. So Jef and Kien fixed Mr Snowman up and he looked almost new.



Wow, school holidays and even though the weather was terrible it didn't stop people coming. The place was packed!



A couple of hours playing in the snow (rain turned into hail was bonus) we were all feeling frozen and decided to call it a day. Depending on the weather we may come back tomorrow.
