About this Event
Have you got to get out to the snow this year with an epic group of shredders?
Have you graduated from Happy Valley / lower-mountain and now want to hit the upper-mountain with a group who are at or even above your level?
Got To Get Out snow club leader Chris Chase is hosting these 'next level' weekends for those in the @gottogetout snow club wanting to go a bit harder and explore more of the Maunga.
His skills as a ski / snowboard instructor from the USA makes him the perfect leader to teach you tricks and help progress skills. Expect attendees of this trip to already be riding mid/upper mountain and be wanting to push a bit harder this year.
The group will stay in National Park and decide which ski field to visit based on the snow conditions and weather report on the day.
