After alot of hard work, the brand new beginners tow (fixed grip) at Hanmer Springs Ski Area is up and running and ready for the new ski season. This fantastic facility will be a real asset for the ski field for many years to come and hopefully alot of young locals will learn to ski and snowboard at our charming field!

New viewing deck at Hanmer Springs Ski Area

Work has started on our much anticipated brand new viewing deck for Hanmer Springs Ski Area.


This structure will give our club members comfort and style to watch fellow skiers and boarders from the sunny vista we fortunately have at our lodgings.
Working bees are continuing through most of the weekends (on various other jobs), if you can help please contact one of the committee members.

Brand new tow for Hanmer Springs Ski Area

We are proud to advise that we are in the process of installing a brand new beginners fixed rope tow to Hanmer Springs Ski Area that will be operational for the new season 2012. This is a big improvement in facilities for us as it allows the "first timers" to have a dedicated area of their own away from the shirt front tow and poma areas. The tow is being shipped currently from Vancouver and is "brand new" (first time in many years we have purchased something brand new!). We will give updates once installed, speaking of which, we will have a few working bees over the summer months - if you can help out - then please get in contact with one of the committee members for details - we offer a free day pass for each volunteer who helps for a day.
