The 82nd Slush Cup is ready to rock

SUNSHINE VILLAGE, AB – Dig out that mullet wig, grab some $10 shades, and pack your sunscreen. Sunshine Village is getting ready to take of its seven-month season in style.

Face shots in May

BANFF, AB – For me, scoring powder shots in May is better than any other time of the season. When all your classmates or colleagues have long since hung up their skis or boards for the season, you're walking back on campus or into the office sportin’ a perma grin and goggle tan.

Spring skiing at its finest

BANFF, AB — It’s mid-April and 24º C. I’m wearing the legal limit for clothing, and drinking my beer as fast as I can so it doesn’t get disgustingly warm. Where am I? Honolulu? Nope. Puerto Vallarta? Nuh uh. Believe it or not, I’m sitting on the deck outside of Mad Trapper’s Saloon at the base of Sunshine Village.

Spring skiing at Sunshine

BANFF, AB — March came in like a lamb but it’s going out like a lion. Sunshine Village is in for some stellar snow conditions.

Riding Sunshine’s terrain park

BANFF, AB — This season has really gotten off to an epic start and with big snow dumps early this season, it means everyone has lots of snow to play in or with, including the terrain park team at Sunshine Village.

Euphoric in Sunshine

BANFF, AB — When it’s this early in the season and you can score runs like we did last weekend up at Sunshine, it’s all setting the stage for an epic season ahead.

Sunshine delivers turns to remember

BANFF, AB — Well what can I say. Sunshine Village just never seems to disappoint! But who would be disappointed in mid-May strapped to a snowboard? I certainly can’t think of anyone.

Sunshine Village’s wild side

BANFF, AB — Even just standing at the lip of it is intimidating. Sunshine Village’s Delirium Dive is infamous amoungst skiers and snowboarders across Canada, and it’s only one of three free ride zones here – the other two being Wild West and Silver City.
