Canada:

Whitewater

Whitewater Winter Resort is cradled in British Columbia’s renowned Selkirk mountains. This mountain is known for its incredible snow-filled winters, possessing over 10 metres (40 feet) per season. With a base elevation of 1,640 metres or 5,400 feet, Whitewater churns out some of the most reliable skiing in Western Canada.

The snow school at Whitewater offers a full range of programs. From the basic learn to ski to advanced clinics and avalanche awareness programs. The new backcountry touring program will satisfy all skiers with its three levels … snowcat skiing is also quite popular at Whitewater with five snowcat operators in the area.

The artsy historic town of Nelson is nearby and is known for its thriving arts scene, visual arts, theatre and live music. Nelson is celebrated for its heritage with a twist. Whitewater is not a rush around resort. Its laid-back reputation, small lift lines, and great hospitality will keep you going back to this mountain for years to come.
