"Every single one of the resort's 116 runs was open, and all 16 lifts were spinning. In early March, that's a big deal. Arriving at a mountain firing on all cylinders-with no closures shrinking the map, is a decadent experience during this trying winter. Big White provided wide-open freedom across five alpine bowls and perfectly spaced glades."
"Coverage remains strong, with a reported 157 cm (over five feet) settled base. That depth keeps Big White skiing like winter even as spring approaches during a low snow year. On the slopes, natural features are filled in, tree runs are supported, and groomers give you a confidence underfoot, inviting you to open it up."
"When Big White's upper mountain is clear, the scale of the terrain really stands out: broad faces, rolling transitions, and sightlines that stretch deep into British Columbia's interior ranges. Having skied a week or so at Big White in total, I have never enjoyed a day there with such good visibility."
