NELSON & WHITEWATER

SKI & SNOWBOARD PACKAGES

Nelson is our favourite town in Canada. Located close to the US border and famous for it’s liberal attitudes due to the influx of ‘draft dodgers’ during the 60’s and 70’s. What we’re most concerned with is located just outside of Nelson and is known for one thing… POWDER. Whitewater Resort is ‘one of the best powder mountains on the continent’ according to Powder Magazine and for this reason it’s our favourite place to ride in BC. Deep pow, bowls and epic tree runs is what keeps us coming back every season on our Canada Road Trip Tour. Our guides know this place better than most. While in Nelson it’s best to live like a local and check out the Ainsworth Hot Springs, legendary snowboard store Tribute and Rock n’ Roll Bingo night at Mike’s Place Pub.
