Big White Winter Blog

The clouds came up to meet us on the mountain this week - and while it's been a little grey in the Village, skiers and snowboarders have been heading straight up the chairlifts to check out the sea of clouds before their eyes.

We must have been very good this year, because Santa collaborated with the Snow Gods to bring us the best possible Christmas at Big White Ski Resort. We're talking 49cm of fresh snow over the last seven days, bringing us to a cumulative snow fall of 374cm and an official snow base of 202cm.

Big White Ski Resort has once again successfully hosted the biggest annual event for snowboarders in British Columbia, the Neil Edgeworth Banked Slalom.

Big White Ski Resort near Kelowna, British Columbia Canada is reporting record tourism numbers for the Christmas season, according to resort Senior Vice President Michael J Ballingall.

The Christmas Eve Parade is one of Big White's favorite traditions, and the festivities this year were nothing short of spectacular.

After a hard night of delivering presents to boys and girls around the world, Santa came to Big White to let off some steam!

This season, Big White Ski Resort once again challenged all skiers and snowboarders to get into the spirit of the festive season by dressing like Santa or Mrs. Claus for their day on the slopes.

Here at Big White, it's all about the snow. We live and breathe for that fresh Okanagan champagne powder.

There are only seven days left until the Big White snow season kicks off - and everyone is incredibly excited about it. Skiing, snowboarding, fresh powder, apres ski, hot chocolate, warm fireplaces, tasty burgers, fairy lights twinkling through the Village... there's nothing better than a snow trip with family or friends. But how are you supposed to save cash while on the mountain?
