In winter in southern New Zealand, the snow line will be about 1000 m. In summer the permanent snowline will be about 2000m. There are consequently many significant glaciers and snowfields. There are only a couple of "ice fields" remaining, the 'Olivine Ice Plateau', and maybe a couple of small ones in Westland. In colder weather in the south, it will snow right to sea level, but never lasts for long there.

From the South Pole to the nearest point of the Ross Ice Shelf would be a little less than 400 km.
The South Pole sits on Antarctica's ice sheet, which covers 98% of the continent. The Ross Ice Shelf may be the closest to the South Pole, even though it is securely attached to the ice sheet and its connecting boundary is imprecise.
