10.02.2022 Bit of excitement for a Wednesday morning. A 6.0 magnitude earthquake 10km deep, epicentre ~10km south of Mt Buller. We hope everyone's ok and no damage to their buildings. I have always wondered what it feels like to be antislavery skiing when an earthquake hits. We're you doing? Did you feel it? Let us know. (We were inside a big concrete building fitting boots - we certainly felt it here at Mt Buller!).

01.02.2022 Really? What do you think about this?

24.01.2022 Our ancient mountains of the Australian alpine region are covered in snowgums. In recent years, dieback of snowguns has become more widespread and common. We can all help this summer by simply reporting on the online portal www.saveoursnowgum.org where we see signs of borers in the trees. Read the article for more info. It's something simple we can all do to help. Makes you feel good!

23.01.2022 As of 5pm this evening, Thursday 9th July, the ski lifts are no longer running at Falls and Hotham due to Covid19 difficulties. Falls Creek the resort is still currently open for guests to stay. As for Ortho Ski at Falls Creek, we are still open by appointment, and our Buller location is business as usual for the time being.

23.01.2022 Still kicking butt after a tough year

22.01.2022 The snow is here! And so are we! Falls Creek Ortho Ski clinic open for the season from tomorrow (Monday). Don't forget to book online so you secure your time. We can't wait to see you all!

21.01.2022 We're all still here and open! Falls Creek Resort is a very special place to visit packed full of things to do, even without the lifts turning. Come and enjoy some of the best food around at all the amazing restaurants and cafes. Wonderful accommodation is available all over the mountain. If you're from regional Victoria we'd love you to take some time out of this crazy year and relax in our beautiful community, or if you're from NSW, come on down and just stay for 6 weeks, save you the pesky quarantining on your home trip and you'll be grateful for the time spent in our magical mountains. Go on, you know you want to

20.01.2022 Squaw Valley gets its new name

19.01.2022 Plenty of snow, but still the plague persists

19.01.2022 A great review of a study. It outlines the confirmation bias in the study and poor method by the authors. A really important read for anyone who is interested in footwear. Look deeper than the headline

17.01.2022 Want to ski and board? Mt Buller is staying open and so are we! Ortho Ski is open 7 days a week at our Buller location. Our Falls location is still available for appointments booked with 1 days notice. Especially important for those keen to take advantage of the world class cross country trails that @fallscreek are continuing to offer, or the beautiful Victorian backcountry. Click the link in bio for bookings. ... #Repost @mt_buller Mt Buller is pleased to confirm continued lift operations beyond 12 July ensuring access to the ski area and lessons on an appropriate scale for as long as conditions permit. This decision has been reached with the well-being and livelihoods of our employees, the community and our guests in mind. Remaining open is not an easy decision however we believe it is in the best interests of our community and regional Victorians. Health and safety remains paramount as we carefully move forward in accordance with public health guidelines for the alpine industry to support our regional economy and the skiers and snowboarders of Victoria.

05.01.2022 Mt Buller have given it their all to keep the lifts spinning for Australians, then Victorians, then just regional Victorians, then just the immediate surrounds. As the restrictions kept changing, they kept adapting to do what they could for their skiers. However, this afternoon was the last turn of the lifts as the state government announced the closure of alpine parks in Victoria in line with stage 3 restrictions in place across regional Victoria. Thank you to Mt Buller for such gallant repeated efforts. Ortho Ski will be open next week from Monday to Friday, 9am to midday or by appointment and then closed. Please call 0408 955 475. Mt Buller hopes to reopen on 14th September if at all possible, in which case we will be back for all your bootfitting needs. Take care, stay safe and keep dreaming of snow in the future.

05.01.2022 Last month Aussie ski legend, Steve Lee, suffered a debilitating stroke. To help with his future a fund has been set up. It's been an extraordinarily tough year for all, so you are only being asked to donate if you can do so. Everything helps, as his sister Kerry says, even the amount of a cup of coffee or a beer is extremely appreciated. https://asf.org.au/comm/snow-australia/steve-lee-fightback/ #steveleefightback

05.01.2022 Snow on blooming wattle. Only in Australia. In a warm and weird winter.

02.01.2022 We know this ski season has not played out as hoped - or this year for that matter. So our new location in Mt Buller has not had the fit-out we had originally planned for our dear clients to enjoy. However, today we have finally been able to install our awesome, new 6m wide image of Kaylin Richardson taken by insanely talented photographer @louisarevalo. Many thanks to Louis for allowing us to use his photo for our wall. And we will continue to update our space to enhance the... environment and space for people to enjoy being in and getting ready for freedom in the mountains. Now more than ever, freedom and access to the magic of the mountains is valued and can't be taken for granted. . . . . . . . #bootfitter #skiaustralia #skivictoria #mtbuller #louisarevalophotography #snow #mountainphotography #mountainlife #skiing #skipodiatrist @ Mt Buller Ski Resort See more

01.01.2022 End of the day at @mt_buller and there's still plenty of snow on the trees. Still waiting to hear from the state government if it's the end of the season too
