Its not funny but highly ironic that the canterbury area gets buried in snow the southern lakes get a dusting but Ruapehu just got plain rinsed!!! All the excitemnet of June 16th opening has been somewhat tampered.

I didn't realise they even had trains over on the "island". Australia being the main land of course....

I did point out the possible political incorrectness of finding humor in the accent.

Except for the bits where they were stressing out about derailing in a big drift.

There’s nothing wrong with snowboarders, it is just the actions of 99% make the rest of us look bad.

My kids (and me) are so fascinated with that having been there in Sep last year when there was no snow on the ground there. That's a pretty significant dump of snow. I don't think I would have made it up to those waterfalls in those conditions.

Great footage! Love the bit at 2:45 in the first one with the dog, then the little girl obviously thoroughly enjoying the snow.
