Big White Summer Blog

Big White Ski Resort Ltd. and Bike Big White are excited to announce the Big White Invitational Slopestyle hosted by Tom van Steenbergen taking place from July 4-7, 2018. This Freeride Mountain Bike (FMB) World Tour event is a grassroots collaboration between Tom van Steenbergen and Bike Big White.

Yvette Morrissey is a travel blogger who has lived and worked at Big White Ski Resort for two seasons. This is her guide to getting to know the mountain, securing a job and accommodation, and other helpful local tips!

It’s time for us to say farewell to winter, although it seems winter is not quite ready to say goodbye itself. With a snow base currently sitting well over three metres and cumulative snowfall edging closer and closer to the 10 metre mark, the 2017-2018 winter season will not be soon forgotten. We would like to thank all those who joined us and helped make it such a memorable season.

A true Canadian winter experience doesn't have to involve shredding down the slopes on skis or a snowboard - not at all! In fact, some of the most memorable Canadian adventures and culinary destinations can be experienced by anyone, regardless of your experience on the snow. 

When you’re working hard, manoeuvring the slopes through all that champagne powder, sometimes you need a little extra fuel to make it to last chair. We checked with science, and it turns out calories don’t count on a powder day – so enjoy one (or all) of these on-mountain favourites during your next trip!
