May 15, 2013 - It's getting colder and the green berlingo snow seeker is being dusted off to head back up Mt Donna Buang to check for snow- but use the links above at any time. Pixs immediately below are from the tower on Mt Donna Buang. Elevation approx. 1250 m.
2012 Reports and images below: 5pm Friday September 7th: 5cm - 10cm+ fresh snow at the Summit . Snow showers predicted for Saturday. Video below from the gate this afternoon. The carparks were very slushy and wet and difficult to navigate - would be best in a 4 wheel drive vehicle this afternoon. And the road had quite a bit of slushy snow on the road past the 10 mile carpark. It was snowing and raining. Definitely HEAPS of great sightseeing snow, general wind and weather conditions should be your guide.

Update: @ Friday 24 AUG. Excellent sightseeing snow at summit + snow falling at 4.30pm. Video below from this afternoon. It was a soggy drive up the mountain this afternoon, but then the snow starting falling on the car just before we parked at the gate. Excellent sightseeing snow and fresh snowfalls about 3-5cm. We managed some tobogganing on the fresh snow at the summit. . Great family snow fun, snow people making and tobogganing for the kids at the summit. Paul @ WarburtontonInfo.com
Update: @ Thursday 23 AUG. No snow at present but snow is predicted this weekend. Stay tuned to this website (book mark us) for more info. We usually try and update late Friday/ early Saturday AM with pictures from the summit. Paul @ WarburtontonInfo.com
Update: @ midday Sunday 19th AUG. Sightseeing snow only. Up the mountain today sightseeing snow only. Park and walk to the summit. Chilly air, picturesque snow scene great for families with small kids to muster together a short 10-20m toboggan but big kids should leave the toboggan in the car. Snow 'people' can be made - and have a walk up the tower. I am height challenged - but have managed to get 2/3s of the way up today - working on that. Paul @ warburtontonInfo.com Update: pictures below @ 4.30pm Friday 17th AUG. Up the mountain this afternoon there is sight seeing snow down to the 10 mile car park. The car parks near the gate are a bit slushy - but some light fresh snow was falling on that and through the gate to the summit great sight seeing, snow play and toboggan runs were being used (but check re: official opening). At the summit lovely cover of snow 10cm deep and there is more snow predicted for tomorrow and overnight. Weekend market at St Mary's 9am - 2pm. Head out to Warburton and have a snowball!

WarburtonInfo.com update: Photos and report below Thursday AUG 9th, 2012. Up the mountain this morning there is very light/ sightseeing snow north of the 10 mile car park. Proceeding with a vehicle beyond the gate near the visitor car parks north of the 10 mile car park would not be advised. Looks good for sightseeing - enough for a snow ball or two or three. And a number of Lyrebirds were spotted this morning on the road side. I managed to take a photo of the slowest one :) All conditions look great for more snow today and tomorrow! This weekend looks a good bet for a snow visit to Warburton! WarburtonInfo.com (All care taken but no guarantee of snow ;) - see also Warburton Events
