Big White spring skiing is a great experience. Here is a small sample of what the village has planned:

Mar 5 -21 – Mini Cruz Blues – Getting to know Big White. You may be challenged to scour one set blue run off of each chair to find the hidden stamp to complete your Cruz the Blues passport. Successful participants will be entered into the draw for a Wii and a whole bunch of other prizes!
