and the rush of speeding down a slope are good attractions for lots of folks. All the 12 runs here are great. Mt. Dobson gets covered by snowfall close to the local average every snow season. With a 900 foot altitude difference it's not the highest hill there is, but Mt. Dobson compensates for it with other things.

You could be into skiing or snowboarding, or both, doesn't matter, there are loads of glorious places for  
that around here. The peaks of New Zealand, South Island in the wintertime are a pleasant place for skiing or snowboarding. Snowboarding and skiing in this region is a lot of fun all winter season long.
