Ahhh,
the lunch hut! BR as it is known to the locals is THE place
for lounging in the sun. OK, enough of that, lets get out
there! BR features two big open bowls that seem to trap slightly
more snow than other places. This is favourite place for the
powder pigs amongst us to go to wallow!
The varied natural hips, berms, rollers and windlips in these
bowls make for heaps of fun, and the surrounding ridges and
peaks have steeps, chutes and rock drops which will provide
the thrill seeker with plenty of adrenaline. The home run
at the end of the day down Alans Basin is an epic.
To get to BR, the once goods lift is now transformed into the amazing passenger carrier that takes you through the Beech forest to the first lodge, where you will continue for a 10 minute walk up the stair master. Once you're on the mountain you'll know it was worth
it! On a good day here they'll get the rope tows going real
fast and as you lap it out you'll pretty quickly forget that
walk! There's even some grooming here for those who don't
like to sink too far into the pow! Friendly staff and locals
make for all-round good time.
