Whitewater makes a Splash to close out the season

The weekend’s season finale up at Whitewater Ski Resort didn’t disappoint, as crowds flooded the hill for one last run.

The biggest crowd-pleaser was the highly anticipated Slush Cup.

The legendary pond skim saw young and old take on the challenge, with some more successful than others.

Despite chilly weather, over 30 brave souls signed up to take the plunge, plummeting down into icy waters donning a dazzling array of costumes, to a cheering crowd below.

Following the spectacle, the party continued with a DJ on site and the drinks flowing as snow-lovers farewell the 2023/2024 season.
