Selwyn Snowfields
Selwyn Snowfields (Vorlage:Coor dm) is a small ski resort in the northern part of the Snowy Mountains of New South Wales, Australia, in the Snowy River Shire and Kosciuszko National Park. Selwyn is located near the town of Adaminaby and is close to Cabramurra, which is the highest town in Australia.
The resorts base elevation is 1492m and the highest point is 1614m Above Mean Sea Level this low altitude compared to the other ski resorts in the Snowy Mountains means it has trouble maintaining a good snow cover especially during the early and finishing parts of the season (June and september). The resort has snowmaking to try to combat this problem, though it doesn't regurlarly get cold enough to make snow because the Wet bulb temperature needs to be under -2C to make snow and at this altitude it only gets this cold about once a fortnight.
When there is a good cover of snow though, it is a very good resort especially for families.
