Australia actually has more snow cover (in area) than Switzerland; its just that given it is a whole continent placing down the area of Switzerland is very small; but there are 16 ski resorts in Australia.
lol my pleasure. Australia is certainly far enough south for good snow; it just lacks any really high alpine mountains to have year round snow and ice (glaciers). Most of the semi permanent winter snow cover is in the so called "Australian alps" (which top out at up to ~2228m) on the mainland. But when you get southern winter storms coming off Antarctica it can snow down to sea level in Tasmania. Because of the maritime island climate in Tasmania however it does not stick around for long at low altitude. This is just from last week.
LOL I was thinking the same thing like i saw the headline and photo and I'm like ive never heard of snow down under

Hello friend, maybe you are also right, but I was the one who was wrong for trusting with the cell's auto-correcting device
Yes I was not disputing that your pictures were from Austria; just pointing out that Australia also has snow ;-)
Consider my mind blown

If he is right friend, it was me who, I did not look well, thank you for correcting me
Lol no worries, we're just having fun that's what this place is all about
Hello, how are you? If it is in Austria, it was the self-correction I placed Australia 3 times and I have not noticed.
In the GPS of the original post I already edited it, if I put exactly the place
