In the winter months, it’s a common sight to see sit skis zooming up the lifts and down the slopes at Big White Ski Resort – and now, you’ll be seeing more and more adaptive bikes ripping through trees, jumping gaps, and cruising down blacks during the summer months.

When you think of Slopestyle Mountain Biking, you probably imagine pro athletes hucking huge tricks off of massive jumps. But at Bike Big White’s Slopestyle Centre, the only slopestyle centre in Canada open to the public, you’ll see aspiring boys and girls as young as seven years old attempting the same tricks as the pros riding alongside them.

If you’re shopping for groceries before coming up to Big White Ski Resort, here’s a hot tip: don’t buy any bottled water. You might think that it’s a good idea to stock up on clean water before you get here, but what many people don’t realize is that Big White’s tap water is some of the cleanest and freshest available in the world – just as good, if not better, than what you’d find in any supermarket.

Big White Ski Resort is now officially closed for the summer season. Since opening on July 10, it’s been a fantastic two months of hiking, biking, RVing, and celebrating Mother Nature’s beauty.

It goes without saying that in most remote communities, the ability to stay connected to the outside world can be a little frustrating. At Big White Ski Resort, this is not the case. Sure, lots of guests come to unplug, enjoy nature and escape their realities while at the resort – but, for those who are looking to still post that selfie, email their coworker, order take-out, pay bills, watch a movie – Big White’s got your back.

The sun is shining, the wildflowers are blooming, and there’s still nearly a month left of Summer at Big White Ski Resort!

Who doesn’t love a stroll through the forest? Hearing the birds chirp, watching the squirrels jump between trees, feeling the breeze as it whistles through the leaves. Now, imagine, during that stroll, instead of stumbling across a patch of wildflowers, you stumble into a pile of trash. 

The sun is shining, the trails are opening, and soon, there will be thousands upon thousands of alpine wildflowers blooming – as of Friday July 10, Big White Ski Resort, in all its summer beauty, is open to the public!
