Firstly, I wanted to say that this policy may be subject to change due to recommendations and best practices within the industry and as mandated by local, provincial and federal government bodies.

Mr. Peter Schumann (photo), on behalf of Big White Ski Resort Ltd, made a presentation today of $5,000 to the Big White Mountain Early Learning Centre to assist the non-profit organization in purchasing supplies, materials and to support the early child educator’s salary. 

At the end of January, Kelowna-based foodie and photographer Kenny from @HeyHangryHippo visited Big White Ski Resort to explore the vast variety of food and drink options available at the snowy winter wonderland.

Big White Ski Resort is pleased to introduce you to our new Executive Chef: Boddie Macklin-Shaw! Boddie has been cooking in all of our kitchens for the past six seasons, starting as a line cook in the Kettle Valley Steakhouse in 2014 and working up to his current role as Chef de Cuisine.

When Big White Ski Resort was formed by two ski-loving friends in 1963, it began with big dreams – and those dreams are nowhere near being fulfilled. For decades, Cliff Serwa and Doug Mervyn, the Schumann family, and now the Plimmer family, have designed and developed and dreamed looking decades ahead. 

The final three contestants take part in a massive enduro race, and, in Episode 10, the winner is awarded with their pro sponsorship after another massive second day on the bike.

Being a racer isn’t just about results.

Contestants must work with a suspension tech to dial in their suspension for the big race.

We're all in this together has never been more true, and we want to thank you. Thank you for being patient. Thank you for wearing a mask; for keeping your distance; for staying home if you feel sick; for respecting our team members, the community and all our guests that have visited the mountain so far this year. Without you, without your commitment to keeping the resort safe, we would be unable to stay open this season.

Have a few bottles lying around after a fun night with family and friends? Well, thanks to a brand new Return-It Express & GO recycling facility at Big White, you no longer have to trek all the way down to Kelowna to recycle all that plastic, glass and aluminum.
