Where is the best snow in Canada? Here are some of BC's Best Ski Resorts with great snow.

Whistler Blackcomb, BC

Another Epic season was predicted – and now it’s delivering it!

Whistler and Blackcomb are two side-by-side mountains that offer over 200 marked runs, over 8,000 acres of terrain and a great ski town full of lots of fun and entertainment. Exciting news from Whistler – over 6 metres of snow already this season! Last season, these same conditions resulted in a near record-breaking snowfall at Whistler with over 1579 centimeters. Will Whistler break this record again this season?

The team at Whistler continue to focus on their incredible guest service including the new Whistler Blackcomb Live, powered by Tellus mobile app, continued enhancement to their food and beverage services and the revitalisation of their Snow School programmes. How many more reasons do you need to go? If you can’t get there this season – call us and plan for 2012 –13!
