BC Coast Mountain Range

Stick the key in the ignition and head west.

Vancouver Island includes Mount Washington and Mount Caine - both winter destinations home to a unique B.C. Coast ski and snowboard culture all its own. Want to score an iconic surf and ski weekend? You can do it here by skiing and snowboarding on Vancouver Island and along B.C.’s Coastal Mountain Range, and you’re close enough to the ocean to get in a little wave action on your surf board. 

B.C.’s West Coast is also home to Whistler, need we say more about this international icon?   Ski, snowboard, cross-country ski, luge and enjoy dozens of other winter adventures wrapped in Olympic history.  

Cypress Mountain, Grouse Mountain and Mount Seymour make up the Lower Mainland’s options for skiing and snowboarding. Each also offer an array of winter adventures with their very own history and culture.
