I've been skiing at Sun Peaks since 1972 when it was called Tod Mountain. It is a fabulous mountain, the facilities are top notch and the people who live and work there are fantastic. The variety of ski runs meets all levels of skiing ability. This is a year-round resort with mountain-biking, hiking, tennis, fishing, dining, and of course a great golf course. The 16th hole is the highest elevation hole in Canada, perhaps North America. If you can drive the ball 225 yards, you may be able to reach the green, 300+ yards down the fairway.....awesome!
