Not what it used to be. A few years ago this place was a gem. Now, it is overcrowded and overpriced. The owners seem to be wasting money. People are grumpy the good snow days mean hours of lift lines and by the time you get up there all the good snow is gone. Season passes cost as much as Whistler for a lot less and the resort doesn't value their pass holders or offer any compensation when they don't even operate at full capacity. Nelson is becoming a dangerous place now too with cars being broken into in broad daylight all over the downtown. Not worth going out of your way to ski here
