Fresh fish @ WH20

NELSON, BC — It can be awfully hard to leave your home resort sometimes. Amidst everything pulling you towards your home mountain, you can often overlook all the other amazing locations to shred some white fluffy stuff.

A taste of Coldsmoke

NELSON, BC — For the past few years, the community of Nelson, British Columbia, and Whitewater Resort have banded together to organize the annual Kootenay Coldsmoke Powder Fest. Taking place over a weekend in February, the Coldsmoke brings together backcountry enthusiasts and hungry powder hounds from all over. The 6th annual Coldsmoke Festival will likely go down in history as the best ever.

A slow motion ski day

NELSON, BC — There is a ski destination in British Columbia where time almost stands still, where there is no cell reception on the chair lifts, where people look you in the eye and say hello — every time — where you can not only enjoy some spectacular turns but score one of the best meals you can ever enjoy from a ski chalet. That place is Whitewater, deep in the Kootenays, close to the funky town of Nelson, British Columbia.

Whitewater: my morning glory

NELSON, B.C. – Whitewater is a powder-filled playground just outside of Nelson, British Columbia. Its new Glory Ridge Chair, off the back side of the resort, effectively doubles Whitewater's in-bounds skiable terrain and adds a whole lot more excitement to a destination that was already known for epic bowls, shoots, groomers, and glades.
