Tasmania has the reputation of being flat, small and having no snow. This reputation may be well deserved when it comes to Ben Lomond, but when it comes to getting out into the backcountry it is far from the truth.
Cradle Mountain and other mountains the the Cradle Mountain National park have some of the steepest and most exposed skiing in Australia. This is largely due to the geology of the area where the mountians are made up of vertical dolerite columns, these then fall of creating steep chutes and steep scree faces on the higher peaks. Although the snow can be inconsistent, the southern facing slopes in the in the park has very consistent snow cover and therefore skiing can be had right up until late in the year.
