The Awakino ski field is located in St. Mary Range, North Otago, New Zealand near Kurow. It is run by the Waitaki ski club and is virtually unknown outside of Otago.

It boasts three high speed rope tows and one access tow which operate on weekends when snow conditions permit. [http://www.newzealandnz.co.nz/ski-areas/awakino.html Guide to New Zealand ski fields] , "Awakino", Accessed 29/6/07]
