For the Petrol-heads ..... Snow Blowers, Snow Blowers and more ........ Snow Blowers :-)

Apparently New Zealanders are the second highest car-users in the OECD 

{Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development} 

after the USA - perhaps not so green as we might think!?!?!?

Couldn't help being fascinated by these - all over the ski-fields

They hook 'em to the water supply in the evenings via flexi 'fire hoses' . . .

Turn on the diesel generator next to them . . .

And away they blow . . .

For the remainder of the day after the lifts have stopped running . . .

And into the night to guarantee enough snow on the slopes for tomorrow!!!
