Whitewater

Whitewater Ski Resort is a ski resort located a 25-minute drive from Nelson in southern British Columbia, Canada.

[1] The resort is situated in Ymir bowl, beneath the 2,400 m (7,874 ft) high Ymir Mountain, in the Selkirk Mountains. The Selkirks receive plentiful, dry snow, and the location in a high alpine bowl provides an annual snowfall average of approximately 12 m (472 in; 39 ft).

[2] The elevation of the parking lot is 1,605 m (5,266 ft) and the highest lift accessed point is 2,000 m (6,562 ft). While Ymir Peak is not included within the ski area boundary, lifts climb both shoulders of the bowl and provide easy traverse routes along ridges to the top.  Sidecountry options here are plentiful and you should definitely pack a pair of skins and lunch in your pack for the day to venture outside the resort boundaries.
