Big White advanced

The Cliff Area on the east side from Big White Peak offers a number of short but sweet options for expert skiers.
 


The Cliff is an entirely ungroomed section of the ski area. Skiers can pick a line, any line, down the curving bowl reached from the top of the Cliff chair. The gradient is double diamond black from top to bottom and there are few trees or natural obstacles to interrupt your descent. Once you’ve exhausted the options head to Gem Lake, at the far side of Big White, for the area’s longest ski runs. The Playground trail from the top of the Gem Lake Express is the only double diamond black away from the Cliff area. The ungroomed Sun-Rype bowl is another option, though conditions can be testing and the snow a little crusty when it lives up to its name.

Off-piste enthusiasts will enjoy skiing in the fine, dry powder that falls on the Monashee mountains and nicknamed ‘Hero Snow’ by the locals.

NOTE: The Cliff area is currently closed while its stability is assessed following an avalanche during the 2007/2008 ski season.
