Snow Continues to Fall at Big White Ski Resort
The resort has extended season pass pick-up hours after 24 cm of new snow fell in four days, officials said.
Big White Ski Resort is covered in snow a month before its scheduled opening on Nov. 26, with 24 centimeters of fresh powder accumulating over the past four days.
The snowfall began on Tuesday, Oct. 27, when the resort woke to six centimeters; an additional 18 centimeters fell over the following two days, with nine centimeters arriving in the last 24 hours.
Residents can pick up season passes at the Kelowna ticket office located on Ambrosi Road, with extended hours available Oct. 29 and Oct. 30 from 8 a.m. to 6 p.m.
Extended hours continue on Oct. 31 from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m., as the resort expanded pass pick-up availability in response to the early snowfall and increased visitor interest.
Weather forecasts predict a mix of rain and snow throughout the coming days, which may continue to build the snowpack before Big White Ski Resort opens late next month.
