    Hi there,

    Does anyone know of any places where you can ski and snowboard in June, July, August?

    I know you can in New Zealand, but does anyone know of anywhere else?

    Thanks

    You can do it on the glaciers in Austria and I presume in Switzerland also. It's quite expensive and from what I hear people generally ski in the morning and then do other things in the afternoons as the snow melts as the day goes on. The summer resorts aren't that big either as they have to be right on the top of the mountains so there may not be that many runs.

    Australia: (Thredbo, perisher), Argentina, Chile. Long way to go, but as Imposter said you can do glacier skiing in europe. What about northern Norway, Sweden & Finland?

    Oregon, USA.

    Have pictures of me in the middle of August, surrounded by die-hard snow-boarders. Mad.

    its on the West coast about 1h30m outside vancouver. Its the biggest ski resort in north america and its brilliant. Didnt get a chance to go snow boarding as i was there at the end of July and they just finished up the snowboarding /skiing a week before that.
