OFFICIAL SNOWTHREAD

Hey, I'm going to the first week so a mate & I are going over on the 2nd. Me staying to a few weeks. I bought my flights with Jetstar. The package includes transfers to/from the mountain to the airport.
If you're gonna head over for a bit before the main week stay at the ace inn. That's like, the endorsed hostel for everyone heading there before & the transfer busses leave from there too.
What's your email address or fb? Might be easier to give you deets.

anyone know from passed experiences how much for a new zealand snow trip?? and where is the best to go..

Heading to NZ for this season, living in Queenstown, anyone else hitting NZ for the season?

Yo Yoshi,

Can you tell me any info for queenstown? Like price of season pass, accom price and all that jazz! Much appreciated!

Hey man,
Im arranging a viewing for a house on May 7th (day I get into Queenstown) cause you can't set a house up unless you have a reppresentive over there to view for you. But for a one bedroom place it like $250-$350 a week. I just got a Queenstown pass which is The Remarkables and Coronet peak when they were early bird but they are $1300 now. Getting over there early to make sure I get an alright job and place to live. Haven't done a season there before but looks like a pretty sweet place to live.

I've been in QT for nearly two months now, its so rad, you guys are going to love it, BUT... accommodation this year has been a massive hassle. I've spoken to various real estates and they don't know why but there is barely any rental properties becoming available. From what I understand, a lot of summer riders have stuck around so that might explain a bit. I originally came across with four mates, two left for their own reasons and I still haven't been able to get a flat with the other guy. I ended up having to get a solo room in a share house just to get myself out of the backpackers! if you haven't got anything lined up I suggest you get the "Lakes Weekly" and look for rentals in there. You'll have a much better chance than asking real estates.

As far as Passes go, I got mine early bird and paid around $900 which included Remarks and Coronet, but as Yoshi said its more expensive now. If you need a board/gear there is a second hand gear market held at the events centre at the end of next month, also.

Jobs are ok, its starting to pick up a bit. I work in Structural Engineering so I managed to have something sorted before I got here (thank fuck). You should be able to get something in hospitality no worries! again, look in the lakes weekly or just hand out resumes, but make sure you speak to a manager or chase it up a few days after if you don't. Oh, and say you're here for at least 12 months!

hope this sheds some light.

Hope this sheds some light

Shit. That message box needs to be bigger...

I get into QT next Wednesday or Thursday, should meet up for roll at the park. I have a house viewing on Thursday which hopefully goes good. And im just gunna hand a shit load of resumes around the place.
Add me on facey if your keen for a skate,
