Slider
Diamond run Slider, near the top of Mount Ruapehu ski field Turoa.
About this place:
Turoa is the smaller of two ski fields on active volcano Mount Ruapehu. Visitors from North America may not be impressed with the snow quality, but come spring, the backcountry riding is excellent. With lifts up to 7600ft above sea level, the ski field also offers stunning views of New Zealand's North Island - and intrepid riders can hike to 9177ft Tahurangi Peak for glacier skiing and bragging rights.
