Best Place to move to in New Zealand to ski/work in 2015

[tDrops]

So im potentially going to be moving to New Zealand for 2 months either before or after I go on exchange to Australia. I have may-june and november-december available for skiing, which one would be better and have the most snow? Im thinking that Nov and Dec might be better but not too sure.

Also what resort would be the best to try and get a job at? I've seen stuff about Cardrona and it looks pretty rad. So if anyone from NZ has any info at all i'd appreciate it.

Thanks

You might juuuust sneak in some skiing late june. And very surprised if you managed to ski in November (Mt Ruapehu sometimes closes early November.

This is the southern hemisphere man. Those months army during ski season.

Sorry.

In general South island is best, especially around canterbury with all the club ski fields.. Might be closed by the time you get there though. Spring season does not draw out as long down here as it does northern hemisphere. Mt Ruapehu might be an option

You do know that it snows in Australia. The months that you would be there would have snow

I met a dude who works at Porters Community Park, outside Christchurch. Really nice guy. He did a good job here in Sweden, so I suppose the park there is alright. There is also opportunity for some backcountry.

Just to add, if you go may June you might squeeze in a little early season down south from around the 10th on June. If you go around November I would be surprised but you might just get the last few days at Ruapehu.
