Don't know where I am going to sleep etc but those are minor details really...

Come on peeps join in!!

Ozgirl Skipigs right, we might have some room for you to crash if you need a place to stay on those dates.
We are staying a 3 story log cabin in Thredbo Village from 7 - 15 Aug.

so i know this has been asked before, but do you just register on the afternoon barcoo?

[Barcoo]

Yes 24 all you do is sign a form, It is easy peasy, we will guide you though it. It's a lot of fun, it's like you are in a movie, very surreal. We are also going to film it with head cams.

that would be awesome. I have only met one snowatcher before in the flesh, although it was a fairly high profile one.

I think It’s always fun meeting people who have a passion for the snow, especially when we are IN the snow and are about to hit the mountain.

If you do every single flare run from the beginning to the end of season that they run, you get invited to a dinner. I think they also give you a free beer to make the Slowbums ride a bit merrier.

Watch out for Backpacker! He is a knarly little fellow, who has ended up going around the bullwheel at the top when his backpack caught up on it. It was a sight.

Oh and dont wear your best gloves wear some old ones, as you can end up with burn holes in them from the flares.

The flares actually give you better definition of the snow so it is much easier to ski. Depending on the conditions the snake goes at different speeds.

If I feel so inclined I might participate, but I could be busy with +1.
