Big Snowfall & Kimberley Opening for Early Preview Weekend

Big Snowfall & Kimberley Opening for Early Preview Weekend

by Cali Burk / Tuesday, 03 December 2024 / Published in Press Releases
Kimberley, B.C – La Nina has hit!  Early season massive snowfall has triggered the favourite words of everyone here in Kimberley, ‘Early Preview Opening’, on December 7th & 8th!

“Combine the incredible snowfall with extensive summer grooming and brushing, this is going to be one of the best early opening preview weekends in recent history,” says Matt Mosteller, aka @PowderMatt. “This community has such incredible passion for skiing/riding, and supporting the importance of getting outside in winter for physical and mental health benefits!” added Mosteller.

“Huge shout-out to all of the Kimberley Alpine Resort team members who have been working so hard to make this possible,” says Christine Schultheis, General Manager, Kimberley Alpine Resort. “The Crew has been busy track packing, snow making and getting ready for opening, and with 120cm snowfall to date, we have incredible early season conditions,” added Christine Schultheis.

“We want to thank the community who ski and ride with us for all your support.  We have some very exciting news to share – we have added not only new snowmaking guns, but most importantly a brand new Prinoth Snow Cat! The new Cat is designed to meet ‘Stage V’ emission standards which operates in a more environmentally friendly way” says Schultheis.

First chair bragging rights! Don’t miss out! Be here for Preview Weekend, December 7th and 8th, 2024. Regular seven day a week operation will begin December 13th, 2024. Check the snow report online for the most up to date info on snow conditions, lifts open and operating details.

We have so many amazing events planned for this winter, so don’t miss the following: New Year’s Eve Ski Hill Bash and Fireworks, Rail Jams, Rec Rut Runners Adult Race Series, Slo-Mo Race, Spring Splash, and North Star Days just to name a few.

Early season snow means don’t forget to share with friends and family to book a winter vacation now. Holidays and weekends are already booking up fast with the news of incredible snow along the Powder Highway of British Columbia!  Check our Special Vacation Offers at Trickle Creek Lodge.
