    Rain has spoiled the party at Mount Hutt this morning

    Rain has spoiled the party at Mount Hutt this morning


    The Canterbury ski field hoped to get the season underway today.

    However, rainfall has caused the snow pack to become unstable, pushing launch day to tomorrow.

    Meanwhile, in Queenstown, NZ Ski Chief Executive Paul Anderson says they've had eight full days of snowmaking on The Remarkables and Coronet Peak.

    He says they have over a metre of snow on the main trails of the Remarkables and Coronet Peak.
