Visitor Reviews of Big White


Anne Franklin from Australia writes:

My husband and I have been skiing at Big White since 2002. Prior to this we skied various resorts in Colorado for over 10 years. After our first trip to Big White we fell in love with the place. The main reason for this change was the fact that the altitude at Big White was quite a bit lower than most resorts in Colorado thus we no longer suffered breathlessness. Other reasons for the change of venue were the quality and quantity of the snow, the ski-in ski-out accommodation and the lack of crowds during the week.

After reading the reviews posted, it appears to me that the reviewers have not accepted the fact that the resort is “family oriented”. Its runs are mostly Blue and Green and wide open. If someone wants to really rip down a run or be challenged by the steeps, maybe they should choose another resort whose runs are made for that type of challenge. If one wants a comfortable place for their children to learn how to ski or if one just wants to enjoy the experience of carving on well groomed runs than Big White is the place. I have taught both children and adults to ski and have found the snow and runs at Big White more than adequate for newbies and experienced alike. Not everyone who wants to ski wants the challenge of black and double black runs. There are plenty of resorts that provide that experience.

Much has been said about the fog at Big White and yes it can be an inconvenience if you are only there for a few days. However, having skied more than 50 consecutive days in the last few years and having caught the first chair on most of those days, we have only been forced to quit early a couple of days each year. I will agree, and have made numerous comments to management, that the various boards around the resort indicating open lifts and groomed runs do not match, something that should be rather easy to maintain in this electronic world of ours.

Skiing at Big White one feels they are the only person on the mountain and believe me, that is a glorious feeling.
