Nelson, BC

By admin, on January 16th, 2009

People come from all over the world to experience the deep and fluffy powder snow that falls in and around Nelson each winter. Whitewater Ski & Winter Resort is the centre-piece for the area, and is consistently ranked as one of the best facilities for those skiers and boarders looking for an exceptional winter holiday.

For the past 25 years, local alpine enthusiasts have gathered together at Whitewater to enjoy the deep snow, meet new friends and build great memories. Whitewater is located in a horseshoe shape valley, Summit side and Silver King side make up the ski area. A Whitewater season pass taps you into the planet’s purest powder supply and you don’t have to haul in the king’s ransom to afford it!
