Not as much as Whislter mind, or this place I heard of called Big White (the Kelowna locals call it Big Shite because it rains so much). Apparently.

I have skied all over BC and Alberta (raised as a child in Alberta and dad took us skiing at Banff)...my favorite ski resort is Sunpeaks.It is gorgeous, dry powder snow,the town is alot of fun. We love staying at the "Delta sunpeaks" hotel. Although we only live 45 minutes away. We are very spoiled to have such a great place to ski at so close by.

My best friends moved here from the UK about 4 years ago...they love Sunpeaks. :D

sunshine village is a skiier's mecca though prone to downright dangerous whiteout conditions but the snow is powder. lake louise is supposed to be as good if not better ...
Skiing is good for the soul!
