Visitor Reviews of Powder King


Shane Stirling from CANADA writes:

Powder King lives up to its name!! Piles of snow most weeks! Not a whole lot of vertical and the best snow is off-piste. Very remote hill with rudimentary accommodations, very laid-back attitude, great people and unique Northern B.C. experience.
