Best Ski Resort for Snowboarders in British Columbia: Revelstoke - Snowboarders Rating
Snowboarders absolutely rave about Revelstoke. Our reviewers mention that the tree runs and powder are consistently exceptional, with advanced rider Matthew calling it his "favourite mountain" where he "learned how to freeride." The terrain offers something special for boarders, with one user describing it as having "Japan powder but with Canadian mountain terrain." Expert rider Jarrod loves the "amazing glades and tree runs," while Jordan highlights the lack of lift lines. The mountain's steeper terrain makes it particularly appealing for snowboarders, as Shawnee points out. When fresh snow falls, the powder stashes throughout the mountain keep boarders coming back season after season.
#2 Big White - Snowboarders Rating
Big White gets serious love from snowboarders of all levels. The mountain's legendary tree runs get frequent mentions, with advanced riders like Alessia particularly rating them for both steep and mellow options that shine on powder days. Beginners find the mountain approachable too, with Nicole noting how easy it was to ride as a newcomer. The champagne powder is a major draw, with Avyn calling it "amazing" compared to other BC resorts. The whole setup is ski-in/ski-out, making it perfect for quick breaks throughout the day. A user who is an advanced snowboarder said the mountain's width offers fantastic variety across its many runs.
#3 Sun Peaks - Snowboarders Rating
Sun Peaks gets snowboarders buzzing with its exceptional terrain across three mountains. Our reviewers mention that the powder is "amazing" and the tree runs are particularly stellar. A user who is an advanced snowboarder said, "When it snows, it goes!" The new West Bowl lift has expanded the exploratory options, while the terrain park receives high marks for being well-maintained. Some Snomad community members highlight that while the resort caters brilliantly to all levels, advanced riders might cover the entire mountain in about three days - though as one user points out, "it never gets boring." The Bushwhacker glades are particularly popular among powder-hunters.
