Winter, Mark 1958- :Queenstown Winterfestival. B.Y.snOw. 26 May 2011
Date: 2011
From: Winter, Mark, 1958- : Digital cartoons published in the Southland Times and other papers
By: Southland times (Newspaper)
Reference: DCDL-0017934
Description: The cartoon shows a range of mountains with, in the foreground, a large sign that reads 'Queenstown Winterfestival B.Y.snOw'. A second version has the sign read 'Queenstown Winterfestival B.Y.Snow'. Context - Last Friday Coronet Peak turned on its extensive snow-making set-up to get the hill prepped to open on June 4. Coronet Peak needs at least 72 hours of continuous cold air temperatures and low humidity levels to make enough snow before next Saturday - it can pump out 24 tonnes across the mountain every minute. The suggestion is that there will not be enough snow and people should BYO snow. Two versions of this cartoon are available Quantity: 2 digital cartoon(s).
