"We didn't really budget for Covid to come off ... but we've had an amazing season. It's certainly the biggest season at Coronet Peak that I've seen while I've been here.
"The count continues, but I think we're slightly over 60 per cent ... compared to where we budgeted."
As well as welcoming Australians back to the slopes, officially marking Matariki up the mountain and celebrating Coronet's 75th anniversary have been the highlights of the winter, he said.
However, the season wasn't without its challenges.
From the get-go, it was a process of "fighting fires", including avalanche risks, clearing "non-stop" snow in the early winter and developing a robust workforce, he said.
"One [challenge] was staffing and, to be fair, we haven't been able to manage fantastically well; but what it means was those that were here worked really hard.
"A lot of staff have come through the season with us and they are the [cream of the crop] and I have nothing but my admiration for all of them."
Although things were still pretty snowy up Coronet, he was already looking forward to getting on his mountain bike for the peak's summer offerings, Kerr said.
“We’ll just have a pause now ... and then start working towards next season.”
