What an awesome little hidden gem of a hill, we LOVED Whitewater! They are a smaller resort with big terrain slowly building up their lifts to high-speed and other developments. As it stands, it is an authentic ski resort with one good, solid, rustic lodge containing all of the services you might need. Excellent parking system, attendants out there helping neatly line everyone up. The lifts are quick and easy to access, the ticket prices are excellent, a really pretty spot in a secluded valley of the mountains, and well-planned use of the very diverse terrain. The shallower slope to the east is used mainly for beginners with mostly green runs, and gentle blue runs with some simple glades for people to build their skills. The big ridge to the west has awesome front and backside skiing just for blue and black skiers. We loved the back and spent almost our entire day there. Beautiful, deep powder, fun tree glades that competent blue skiers can handle and enjoy, and a cute little lodge with a wood-burning stove and some lunch items near the back-side lift line. Apparently last year they only had portable washrooms and a food truck, so they are developing the backside bit by bit! The food was alright here, not amazing, but in fairness it is a really tiny kitchen. We didn't try the main lodge's food, which is supposedly excellent and under the guidance of a master chef. We will absolutely be back to Whitewater, one of our favourite hills to date!

I had heard good things... Ended up being extremely impressed with the terrain, lodge, lifts, and especially the food. Really world class food at this resort. And the snow was crazy. We have about 60cm right when we got there, which made for some great skiing. The best part was probably how reasonable the crowds and lines were.

As someone from Vancouver I love this place. The vibes are great, the food is amazing (this is the only resort I purposefully don't pack a lunch when I go to ski there), awesome skiing and great access to the back/slack country. I look forward to making a trip here every year.

Amazing back country culture. Great staff. I rented some boots and the rental Shack was fantastic. Went skiing with my five year old lots of fun runs for a little. It is a smaller Lodge than Schweitzer but everyone was super nice and the food was good.

Hills are amazing, but don't bother with the cafeteria. We expect a wait when ordering food at a ski hill so wasn't surprised by the 20 minute wait to order on a Sunday. However, having to wait over 45 minutes after ordering before getting our food (just a wrap and salad) killed a good chunk of our day. The snow and slopes were great but the food isn't even close to being worth giving up that much of your riding time.
