Skiing
The last establishment of a major skifield in New South Wales came with the development of Mount Blue Cow in the 1980s. In 1987 the Skitube Alpine Railway opened to deliver skiers from Bullocks Flat, on the Alpine Way, to Perisher Valley and to Blue Cow, which also opened in 1987. The operators of Blue Cow purchased Guthega in 1991, and the new combined resort later merged with Perisher-Smiggins to become the largest ski resort in the Southern Hemisphere. In 2022 Perisher had 48 lifts covering 1245 ha and four village base areas: Perisher Valley, Blue Cow, Smiggin Holes and Guthega.

Blue Cow has eight ski lifts:
 * Ridge Quad Chair
 * Summit Quad Chair
 * Early Starter Double Chair
 * Terminal Quad Chair
 * Brumby T-Bar
 * Pony Ride Carpet
 * Snowsports School Rope Tow (Snowsports School only)
 * Pleasant Valley Quad Chair
