Spring in the Aussie Alps

[LewisM]

Took the family to the last of the snow this year 2 weeks ago. We went to Thredbo, and took the lifts to the top - certainly was NOT cold! :)

As you can see, the coverage was really starting to recede, but it was still a lot of fun (and being not cold, was even more fun since the wife and kids didn't whinge :P). My wife was rapt from Jindabyne on (the country really starts getting beautiful)

Magnificent country we live in...:thumbsup:

It certainly is beautiful up there, I lived there for several years and have skied and walked the Snowy Mountains for over 40years....

It is, a friend who walks the back country to ski every year has some amazing pics from out there from the last few weeks I think he came back today lots of water and ice now .

You're killing me Lewis.
I'd love to go up there.
Amazing.
I've only ever seen snow once.

I remember shovelling mine out of the side of the road once in andorra. Took about 15min to find the right car, 1h to free it and 1min pissing on the frozen keyhole to open it.

I've never seen snow, but have been to Kosciusko in the late Spring. Beautiful place.

Watch out where the huskies go and don't you eat that yellow snow :eyepop:

[LewisM]

Oui oui pepe? :lol:

I had to google this. Must be a russian thing...

No huskies in the pyrenees, just a handful of bears, but they're quite shy and don't run that fast.
