'Canada's Napa Valley' Is a Best-kept Winter Secret—How to Visit

"Set across three peaks with 4,000 acres of terrain, 2,900 feet of vertical and a 10-acre terrain park, this family-friendly mountain offers varied runs for all levels and typically receives deep seasonal snowfall (about 23 feet annually). A newly opened West Bowl Express lift has opened more access to soft, pillowy powder with minimal lift lines, and the compact ski-in/ski-out village—designed with an alpine, northern-Italy charm—hosts a lively après-ski scene and year-round activities from tubing to sleigh rides. Visitors can also enjoy guided nocturnal snowshoe walks that end at a pine-scented bonfire with hot cider, and the on-mountain dining includes cozy options serving fresh crusty bread with creamy fondue." - Jennifer Malloy
