Find ski buddies in Ohakune

Ohakune is the town beneath Turoa on Mount Ruapehu, best known for its giant carrot and a winter population that swells with riders. Turoa is up the Ohakune Mountain Road, and Whakapapa is around the mountain on the northern side. Many people base themselves here for a season, working in cafés, lodges or on the mountain. Ruapehu's volcanic terrain is full of natural gullies and drops, but the weather can close things quickly, so locals keep an eye on the forecast and pounce on clear days together.
