Selwyn (Selwyn Snowfields) has improved considerably in recent years with better snow, snow making and grooming. The Hydro Electricity Authority has been cloud seeding in recent years which has greatly improved the snow cover. It is a great place for families (kids can't get lost) and is much cheaper than the main range resorts.
