Big Fun at Big White

A quick flight to Kelowna and 45-minutes drive out of town and youre at
Big White Ski Resort, where everything you need for a productive weekend
getaway is at your ski-tips.

Spa
The Timeless Eternity package
($328) at Beyond
Wrapture Day Spa gets you three hours of wine-themed bliss. For
example, the Okanagan grape pip scrub exfoliates with the grape bits
that dont make it into wine.

Drink
Youd think it was an invention of
the Calgary Stampede, but Gunbarrel Coffee at Snowshoe
Sams is all Big White. A glass rimmed in crystallized sugar is
filled with brandy, cacao and coffee. Out comes the shotgun and flaming
Grand Marnier is poured down the barrel of a shotgun into the glass. It
all happens on a cart that is wheeled to your table.

Stay
Step out of the hotel into your
skis at any of Big Whites ski-in, ski-out hotels including the White
Crystal Inn. When youre done, relax by your fireplace or enjoy the
best of après ski in the surrounding village.

Play
Big White gets 750 cm of snow
annually and with 118 runs (most of which are beginner or intermediate)
you wont be at a loss for ski
options. To get the quintessential Big White experience, youll want
to swoosh through the powder weaving through the snow ghosts aka snow
covered trees.

Play some more
Theres dog sledding,
skating and tubing, but climbing the ice
climbing tower will get your adrenaline pumping. Built from four
telephone poles that are cross-braced and sprayed down each week the
massive block of ice has one side is easier than the rest, but any of
the four with take you up 60-feet to ring the bell at the top. Jaelyn
