Mountain News

Hello, Big White Ski Resort community! We've got some exciting news to share with all our friends, visitors, and supporters.

Get Ready for an Unforgettable Summer Adventure at Big White Ski Resort!

Big White’s 22/23 Season by the Numbers.
While it’s hard to say goodbye to the ski season with an epic amount of snow (27 new centimetres last night!) still gracing the slopes, Big White Ski Resort is officially closed for the 2022/2023 season, and it’s time to start digging out for a summer full of biking, hiking, and music festivals!

Here at Big White Ski Resort, we care, more than anything else, about providing a top quality experience not only for our guests, but for those who make their home on the mountain – including our extensive clowder of Snowcats.

As the season comes to a close, celebrate the 2022/2023 season with your 100-Day pin! These pins are reserved for only the most avid skiers and snowboarders – those who have had their pass scanned at the gates at least 100 times since Opening Day!

On December 8, 60 years ago, 400 skiers traversed the one-way road up the mountain to the newly constructed resort – complete with a 1,700-metre T-bar and 150-metre tow rope. They paid around $4 for a ticket, ate a “light meal” from the cafeteria in the log-cabin style chalet – located about 150 metres straight uphill from where Monashee Inn is now – and likely had no idea what a ski helmet was.

You’ve rounded up your friends, you’ve bought your tickets, you’ve booked your accommodation… now what?

On March 31 and April 1, Big White Ski Resort will play host to a variety of musicians, bands and DJs for Canada's Largest Mountain Music Festival - AltiTunes. This two-day outdoor concert will see thousands of music lovers coming up the mountain to dance, enjoy balmy weather, and maybe get in a lap or two on the snow.

Steeped in community, support and friendship, Big White Ski Resort’s annual Neil Edgeworth Memorial Banked Slalom has a legendary status among snowboarders across the province of British Columbia

Mark your calendars - the Big White Community School’s Annual Young Entrepreneur (YES) Show is BACK on February 24, from 10 am to 2 pm, in The Happy Valley Day Lodge.
