DAILY REPORT
Last updated: 8:52am Sat 5th Oct
Ka hari te Rāhoroi katoa (Happy Saturday everyone) and welcome to a cloudy Whakapapa.
Looking ahead to today, Happy Valley for beginner riding as well as sledding will open from 9:00am.
Sightseeing on the Sky Waka Gondola will open at 9:00am.
Unfortunately a mixture of low visibility and surface conditions and view that the conditions won't improve today will mean the upper mountain is closed.
We look forward to seeing you at Whakapapa today.
