@@solartribal7273 it sure is! But it's crazy busy on weekends.

I'm not sure the date or time I did this run, sorry. By the angle of the shadows, I'd say about middle of the day or a bit after. The south side slopes can stay super icy, even later in the day.

Yeah I agree it does sound icy. I was probably skiing all the black runs next to wombat or the ones off summit that day, if I was there around that time

@Octo934 Nice one.

@hellozhenchong3079 Yeah, good point. Summit, Summit Slide and Summit Right is the widest ski area at Buller. It's because it's above the tree line, similar to Gudauri in this video. When you have runs cut into the trees, like the rest of Buller, then you end up with narrower runs.

The original creator Zaza originally posted this 5 years ago. I've asked him when it was filmed.

@ I was planning on skiing them this upcoming season, just wanted to know what they were like.

@aussiebiking Thanks mate. And thanks for subscribing too, I appreciate it. The closest run I have there is Shakey Knees. I skied Chalet Creek and Cow Camp a couple of seasons ago when there was decent snow down there and took a spectacular stack and massive face plant. Unfortunately I wasn't filming at that point but at least it was powder snow. It's on the list for '25 season hopefully. Have you skied down those runs or would you like to know what they're like?

@aussiebiking I'll check through the rest of my footage but I don't think so, sorry. If you haven't skied down there before, you really need wait for plenty of snow down to a low levels so it's not mega patchy. There is some tree skiing too which is fun. Again, you need plenty of snow. Have fun next season!

👍

Thanks for your comment. It's a great run, isn't it. Do you like Men's Downhill, too? That is groomed, but it can have moguls, and it's an easier black run like Summit Right+Howqua. I, too, have been skiing Buller for 45 years and keep coming back. It's a good mountain.

You're right, Chris. Did you like the run? Years ago Famiky Run used to be classified as a green run (which, without thinking, I advised this in the video) however due to the narrow size and being a little tricky for beginners to navigate, it's now a blue run. Thanks for watching.

Im kn the background btw

I was at the cafe

​@@thegoosekingyt2116, for reals? That's cool!

Yea I am on on the far ish right of the cafe

Nice one. Glad you liked it.

Omg hi

I’m actually going to mt Buller tommorow

I’m also subscribing right now

​@@thegoosekingyt2116, enjoy the bluebird day tomorrow ☀️

True. There's some fresh snow this evening and hopefully plenty more this season. Have fun out there.

That's a shame. Hopefully you got your laps in at some point.

@@everyrunnah I would have fallen up their anyway

Gliders is currently running operating with the limited snow but it's on the opposite side of the mountain to Woodrun. You can access Gliders by walking from the top of Bourke St lift or skiing down from top of ABOM Express.

@@everyrunoh thanks!

Thanks, Ava. Hopefully, there'll be more snow this year, and the mountain opens up. As Warren Miller always said, "If you don't do it this year, you will be one year older when you do."

Thanks Ava 😊

Yes, it's called ABOM Express lift

@@everyrunthx

@@everyrunthx

Thanks Nick. It was a stunning bluebird day with great snow coverage and a really firm base in 2022.

@@everyrunthanks for that. Heading up again late August with our college. Fingers crossed the season picks up and it’s not a season like last year.

Have fun when you go, Nick! Fingers crossed for some good snow ahead.

You're welcome David and thanks for your feedback! This is exactly the reason I created this channel and will be expanding it this winter too. Glad you're finding it helpful. Funnel and Plug Hole have moguls and are reasonably steep like other Mt Buller black runs. The challenge is also that the run is very narrow so you have to make tight turns, quickly. Keep control and ensure there's sufficient snow coverage, then you'll be fine. If you'd like easier black runs to cut your teeth on, perhaps give Men's Downhill and Summit Right because they're wider and regularly groomed, making good practice for steeper runs than your blues. I have videos on those two as well if you're interested. Good luck and let me know if you make it this season 😊

@@everyrun Thanks mate! Heading up to Buller on Sunday to dust the summer cobwebs off doing ABOM laps, then got a week at Falls and Hotham each in August, with a lesson at Falls to help me transition to black runs. Finding im just gunning it down the blues the last couple years, I need a new challenge! Hopefully its a good winter and you can get some of the lesser run stuff recorded this season!

Dann, that's a good question! Summit run is deffo not 40 degrees. It's an easier blue run.

Yeah, get excited! Have fun when you go and thanks for your feedback. This is certainly an easier black run because it's groomed most days so it's nice and smooth but not too steep. Just make sure you ski around the little drop off at the top, if you don't want to try it. Good luck and let me know how you go.

Same here! Can't wait. What run will you tackle first?

@@everyrunJust got back from my trip! The sunny weather was great but not much snow. The summit was my alltime favourite and especially stopping at Koflers afterwards 👍

​@Ava-ij4pn nice one! Pity there wasn't much snow yet but there'll be more snow in the next few days. You’ll have to go again. Koflers is great!

Thanks mate

Mate, thanks for watching. You're a legend!

I love Mount Buller and you keep making me remember the different runs @@everyrun

You're a legend! Thanks for your thoughts. I'm so glad you love the videos and I'm truely humbled. 😊 Enjoy your trip!!

You're so right! The LHS drops off to some Black runs, so the netting is just a safety measure for some rogue skiers. Great views from this run though!

Awesome, it's a good run you can keep skiing and skiing. Stunning views, hey? The snow is falling now so...Enjoy.

Bourke St Express runs to the top of Bourke St only. Abom Express lift takes you from Bourke St to the top of Baldy. That also gets you over the other side like the Summit area and the south side of the mountain.

@@everyrun thanks. The Express starts at the village?

Yes, Bourke St Express starts right in the heart of the village and Abom Express starts from halfway way up Bourke St ski run, right next to the ski school. This is still in the village too, just higher up.

Thanks mate, you've made my day!! 😊 I love shooting the top to bottom runs and sharing them for everyone to see the whole terrain, the mountain and the views. Have a good one!

Check the comments on this video and on the original Men's Downhill video. It'll all make sense 👍🏻

@@everyrun Oh, I have lol. That's why I'm asking. Seems he's disappeared.

I bet you did but I'm sure you're nailing it these days.

Sorry, I must have missed your comment ages ago. Which hotel do you mean? There are plenty on the mountain in the village.

Sorry mate, I must have missed your comment ages ago. Sure is a spekky view are the right hander. 🙌

Yeah, it was super icy that day

Thanks Toffsy, appreciate your thoughts. If you stick to the pistes (the designated runs) you won't get lost. There's always a lift at the bottom to get you back up.

Thanks Deren! How did you enjoy yourself when you were up at Buller with your kids? I mount the GoPro on the chest harness and user Superwide setting.

Hey Emily, is love part the awesome views? Is that hate part the flat spot or that it's narrow? What's your thoughts?

@@everyrun I love going into it from the terrain park and the start, the narrow part at the end can get a bit messy especially with a lot of people. I think it also really depends on the conditions. This may also be an unpopular opinion but I love the uphill part and speeding up to get to the top. The views are amazing too.

Oh, keep practising with lessons and you'll get there. Thanks for watching.

@@everyrun Oh I did bro, believe me it was awesome.

@@everyrun I also think it is easier for me to go without the uhm hand stick things

Hey Random, Good on you for challenging yourself. I'd suggest you ski the Summit run which is blue then ski further and further right under the Sunmit chair then to the skier's right of the Summit chair to Summit Right run. That transitions from blue to black difficulty. If you go earlier in the day, then it's groomed too. Good luck!

...and those videos are on my channel too in case you want to see them first.

That'd be nice! Get rid of the weekend queues!

Thanks Sharyn. I've been skiing here since I was 2. Keep practising and you'll become a professional tree dodger too, lol.

@@everyrun hahahah!!! Yeah!!! Good one!!! hahahaa!!! Thanku! for Inspitation!! maybe one day!!.. but just watch U! for now.. Wow!!! 2 Years old. No!! Wonder U! R! Good. ThankU!! for sharing..

Good on you for going down Woodrun. Don't worry about the stack, it happens. So long as you came out in one piece. If it was near the lift at the bottom, you may have got some scores or cheers for the skiers going back up!

Hey Andrew, Good on you for giving Men's Downhill a shot. We're you falling/failing on the little cornice up the top or the run itself? Are you a black run skier or strong blue normally? Best time to go is in the morning after it's been groomed so its smooth, especially in warmer weather. You can nice edges in that way. If its cold and windy weather, the run faces south so it can be a hard, icy surface so go later in the day. It'll have a little bit of a looser cover but hard surface underneath, like in this video. It had been -6 overnight for many days but this day of filming was about 5 degrees. The base was still icy underneath.

@@everyrun Thanks for the advice! Normally I'm a strong blue, and I usually fall near the middle of the run when it gets icy and I can't exactly stop myself in time.

@@keixx2719 yep just keep practising and you'll manage to be upright all the way down. You can try and work your way from Summit to Summit Right and gradually take a harder and harder line. That'll get you from blue to black slowly and you won't really notice the different. It could be a way to get more confidence up. Summit and Summit Right are on my channel if you want to check them out.

@@everyrun Thanks for the help!

@@keixx2719, any time mate. Good luck.

I agree, those chairs are pretty uncomfortable. Beats walking back up though.

Becareful on the Mountain!!!

It sure is, especially with sunshine and snow like this!
