Snow storm hits Panorama

Monday, January 24th, 2011

Just back from a snow break!  It has snowed 15cm in the last 12 hours and it’s still snowing!!  Panorama has had a great season so far with some great powder days.

This year when the sun goes down the lights will come up on the Showoff run for Night-Skiing. You can hop on the Mile 1 high-speed chairlift to ski 1,200 vertical feet and enjoy a mile-long night skiing area. Night skiers can perfect their technique ready for the next day or just have fun with friends cruising down into the heart of the village.

Big White Wins Best for North America on an Epic Snow Day!!

Tuesday, January 18th, 2011

Big White Wins Best Access out of all North American Resorts! Silver Star comes in 2nd. Silver Star was also second for Best for Families.

Few ski resorts can rival Big White for its ski convenience – virtually all the hotels and apartments in this modern, purpose-built resort are ski-in, ski-out, with the main lifts starting below village level and even the Main Street being dubbed a ski run by the resort.  The terrain suits intermediates best, and the fact that it gets a lot of snow and has a lot of trees for shelter means that it is a good place to learn to ski powder. There’s also a great area called Happy Valley with other activities such as ice skating, snowmobiling, tubing and snowshoeing, served by a gondola that works till late. It’s the snow at Big White
