Ben Lomond is the "premier" Tasmanian ski resort. It's pretty crap really, but the locals have plenty of fun. It has a polled route from the village out to Little Hell. The slope down from Little Hell is steeper and longer than anything on piste, but needs a good cover to be skiable. There are also rumours about some very steep chutes on the eastern edge of the escarpment.

Mt Field

Mt Field has some good backcountry skiing, and it is relatively close to Hobart (an hour and a half). Don't worry about the rope tows, the backcountry is much better.
