Jindabyne is in the bottom of NSW, to the right of thredbo, perisher valley ski resorts and Kosciuszko Nat Park and is down below the snow line on a big lake.
The last week and a bit I have been to different areas of the Alpine NP in Vic such as Mt Cobbler, Mt Buffalo, Mt Bogong, Falls Creek, Mt Wills and Lake Dartmouth. I then crossed into NSW into the Kosciouszko NP and checked out Thredbo area, Perisher Valley resorts such as Guthega, Smiggins holes, Perisher and Charlotte Pass. All the previous places are covered in snow in winter.
It can snow anytime of the year apparently. I found some areas of snow on Mt Bogong and Mt Kosciouszko & nearby mountains. First time I have been around snow since I was a teenager living in Melb!!! All good fun.
From Jindabyne I am heading north through the Kosciouzsko NP to Tumut then north to the Blue Mountains NP via Goulburn. Then across to the coast near Newcastle.
I have lots of pics for your viewing pleasure
