Get ready to earn your turns me he tē! (like a boss!)
Here we go again - Coronet Peak by paihikara (bicycle) + retihuka (ski) 2.0!!
In the spirit of zero emissions ski touring taking off around Aotearoa, come and join us for a fun day out rewarded with kai and beersies at Altitude Brewing.
Last year we had beautiful weather, great snow, and NZSki buses giving us some noisy ekenga tū! (toots)
