Great photos Philip.
My daughter and her bf are currently working at a place called the Powder Horn at Ohakune which I think isn't too far from Mt Raupehu.
Our neighbours son is managing a resort on the Ohakune Mount Ruapehu area - he got the job earlier this year having worked in OZ last year, not skiing...
He's ex Exeter 1st material as well and a great guy best pals with my No2 daughter from birth onwards.
