Skiing/Snowboarding, Snow Sports / By Amy McCaffree

Not one, not two, but three season ski passes belong to Kim Lukes, 64, which is why she skis 70-90 days a season, along with her husband of 44 years, Craig. While they’ve long been dual-pass holders at Mt. Spokane and Silver Mountain, this season marks their first with Ikon Passes.

Rustic Luxury at Logden Lodge

Destinations, Get Out There, Skiing/Snowboarding, Travel / By Aaron Theisen

Twenty minutes south of Nelson, B.C., just outside the zero-stoplight community of Ymir, Paul Hulshoff and partner Annelies Ellerman have built Logden Lodge, one of the few vehicle-accessible luxury lodges in the Kootenays. The handful of private cabins bring hand-crafted European style to the Kootenays, but even more importantly, they bring winter adventurers within easy reach of classic Powder Highway locales.

Winter Adventures in British Columbia

Get Out There, Skiing/Snowboarding, Travel / By Derrick Knowles

Traveling north of the border for skiing, snowboarding, hot springs soaking, snowshoeing, or other winter adventures is incredibly easy and worth every kilometer of extra driving.

This lightly-populated, vast expanse of wild mountains, valleys, lakes, and rivers; enchanting yet authentic mountain towns; and destination-worthy resorts, parks, and trails is a wonderland right next door.

The Canadian Curve

Get Out There, Skiing/Snowboarding, Travel / By Aaron Theisen

Everything is bigger north of the border. I call it the “Canadian curve.” It generally works like this: a ski run that is rated a blue in B.C. would be a black stateside.
