No doubt you have all been looking at the Mt Buller Snowcams frequently, it sure has been a roller coaster the last few weeks! As you will see there is currently no natural snow in the resort, with any of the white stuff on the runs just man made. Last night the snowmakers were in operation, and the forecast is calling for more cold temps tonight.
Another system will move in on Wednesday, and it will be an interesting one ... fingers crossed! Check out the snow forecast from Jane Bunn for more information http://www.janebunn.net/snow-forecast
We will be sending out a TBR training update on Friday morning after meeting with the Mt Buller Outdoor Operations Team. It looks like we will have to get creative on how we train on snow to start the program. Thankfully we have the Buller Air Zone, which has been booked every day of the school holidays! Please ensure you have appropriate clothing for off snow/dryland activities.

GROUPS
With a lot of new athletes joining the program from other Mt Buller programs, the first week will predominantly be used to assess which group athletes are best suited to.
Skills assessments will be conducted on all athletes, covering a wide range of on snow skills, and freestyle specific actions like jumping, moguls, park, rails etc..
The head coaches from each program area will work with the coaches to place athletes in respect to age, ability and mix of genders.
