Much of Australia is desert (outback) but we do have an alpine region that runs from Victoria into New South Wales. The elevation is not high, so the skiing is more like Vermont than Colorado, if you're familiar with United States geography. And you only get snow for two or three months, then it starts to melt off and the lifts stop running. But it's a fun interruption from an otherwise fairly hot place. That said, Melbourne is a little cooler much of the year. @boomshikha

Australian geography is quite diverse, I think I missed the fact that is a continent. Really cool!
Agreed! I was thinking the same thing, but I didn't want to be rude. :) I guess, they have cold areas in Australia, too. It is so huge.
