Wow I knew there was a bit of snow in Australia but I didn't expect that! Definitely on my list to visit one day.
Calling them "Alps" is a stretch though, an upward stretch.
- askvictor 8y agoNowadays the snow is very intermittent. We get a good sign every 5 or so years, used to be almost every year.
- falsedan 8y agoI grew up nearby and we never called them that, either the Snowies or the High Country (depending on which state you were from/talking about)
- microtherion 8y agoAs a Swiss, I'd say that the Australians are grading their mountains on a bit of a curve there. But other than altitude, this seems to be pretty serious wilderness.
- dragonsky 8y agoDon't worry, I'm Australian and I had to look at the wikipedia page to find out what they were talking about. We normally call the area the Victorian High Country, a far more accurate description.
