Snowy Holidays - When to go?

Question

Wanting to go to the Snow, perisher, selwyn or thredbo.. What would be the best time to go....for snow? or is there somewhere else in NSW you can surgest?

Answer 1

When the ground is covered with all that white stuff and it is so cold that your teeth rattle enough to drop all  your fillings out.

Answer 2

best time july/august

Answer 3

Late July to the end of August is the most reliable time.  Statistically, early September has the deepest snowpack.

This http://www.snowyhydro.com.au/snowDepth.a... is a link to the Snowy Hydro snow depth information.  The closest station to Selwyn is 3 Mile Dam.  For the others, Spencers Creek is the closest.  3 Mile Dam is about 3 km from Selwyn, and a bit lower in altitude.  Spencers Creek is between Perisher and Charlotte Pass and has a similar altitude.
