  1. Tom –

    Amazing experience! I got to see a whole side of Falls Creek that I never have before in 24 years skiing at the resort. Macca was the complete professional guide and very knowledgeable about the local area. Perfect corn snow on Mt McKay for a perfect adventure. Am looking forward to the next trip!
