MAISIE Winter Macaskill is our first skier for this season.

Maisie is the daughter of long term Buller employee Ewan Macaskill and mum Pamela Durnin.

Maisie hit the slopes for her first skiing lesson when early snow fell on April 20 this year – and at the very young age of almost two years.

Taking to the skies like she has done this before, Maisie is sure to become a proficient skier in future years as both mum and dad are keen skiers.

Each issue of the Mt Buller News this year will feature a skier or snowboarder.
