The sun was shining but the wind was brutal this morning. I found out later in the day that if the wind speed was 1 kph faster then the lifts would have been shut down.
Despite the wind we spent the morning over on Ruined Castle on some pretty good snow but it started to soften around lunchtime.
Rachael managed a private lesson in the morning as her other class mates didn’t turn up, then did some racing in the afternoon with a 26 second run. 🙂
Jenny went for a lesson after lunch and also did some racing and got fastest adult female but didn’t beat Rachael with 27 seconds. It did get her a voucher and a couple of free wines at the presentation in Cloud Nine.
The plan was for us to catch the Falls Creek Express back to the top at the end of the day, drop our skis in the locker and bring Jenny back down.
The plan soon changed with some weather coming in and the lifts being closed due to the chance of lightning.
So we couldn’t get up and Jenny had to ski down after a couple of wines. Luckily she had to bring a 5 year down on Wombats Ramble so it was a very slow sobering ski. 😉
I guess we will be taking our skis and stuff up in the morning.
We didn’t see much lightning but it did rain tonight – hope it doesn’t wash any of the snow away. 🙁
The GPS track today was 45 kms.
