Can you ski in tasmania

Can we all afford to go to Europe, can we? The fact we have snow at all, in Australia, is something to celebrate. It has been said that Australian advanced skiers are the most core in the world, cos of what they have had to learn and deal with, as far as piste conditions go. And the off piste. Well, if they haven't spent all their learning in Europe or the US. K os A Local. Aug 12, 8, 41 South Australia.

I've left it for a few years but I'm sure I'll be back one day. Certainly isnt a priority for me atm though, I've boarded in 3 different countries this year alone, none of them AUS.

Japan is 10 hours flight away with great snow and resorts - no jet lag either, havn't been there yet but really wanting to go! NZ - well its variable, sometimes its just as bad as here, but because their mountains are way bigger and real mountains, you generally wont get as disappointed as say Buller.

Hey, you might be right. But what if we took away all your local skiing? Oh, well, within 15 years, you'll only be skiing man-made in Aus. Things are warming, you know.

Yes the skiing may be better in many other countries but where our average elevation is around m asl and we are are the driest continent on Earth after the Antarctic then we are doing okay.

Go Tassy.. Captain i think you missed my point, tassie teases you into getting excited only to let you down, it teases you with one awsome day only to rain the next day. As i said i love my tassie backcountry. Jul 7, 1, 0 Melbourne. Luke00 said:.

The ski village facilities are on the Ben Lomond plateau.

Cross-country skiing and snowboarding are very popular. You will find there are three T-Bars and four Poma lifts helping provide affordable skiing for the beginner to intermediate skier.
