But I see a lot of runs in those photo's but nothing I would like to ski on, maybe Yeti can take some shots of better terrain for us.

Are you going there as part of your trip Podlettte. ?

Yep, has 1700m of vertical ie about 6 Falls Creek stacked on top of each other and those photos are only the base.

Was just checking their website. Here's a few stats.

have only skiied twice, been too busy working, and on day 1, I nearly got a core shot. Alot of others have core shots from the rocks. Although last weekend we did see knee deep powder in just 2 days.

Longest Run: 15.2 km/9.5 miles (Last Spike)
Alpine Bowls: 5
10% Beginner :eek:
42.5% Intermediate
47.5% Advanced
Gladed Areas: 13

The Last Spike su!cks, it takes forever to get back to the daylodge, it would take forever to get to the bottom at Nelson Lodge when it opens later this month.

The last Spike just won of those long hideous cat tracks that's a pour excuse for a ski run Yeti? Even over 1700m of vertical there can't be much pitch to it!
