Big White is Canada's second-largest ski resort with famously dry 'champagne powder' and a completely ski-in/ski-out self-contained village.

The Terrain in Big White

Big White's 118km spread across a wide summit plateau that averages 750cm of dry champagne powder per season. The unique 'snow ghosts' — trees heavily encased in rime ice — create a distinctive visual landscape at the summit and mark the entry to the best powder fields. The resort has a snowfall record that exceeds Whistler in most seasons due to interior BC cold air.

Why Hire Skis in Big White?

Hiring or renting ski equipment in Big White is the smart choice for most visitors. Luggage costs for ski gear can exceed the price of a week-long rental, and local shops offer ski rental perfectly tuned for Big White's terrain — all levels level, 118 km of pistes at up to 2319m.

Snowboards for all riding styles available — freeride, freestyle, and all-mountain shapes tuned for Big White's all levels-level terrain. Bindings adjusted to your boots on pickup; free swap if conditions change mid-stay.

Ski Boots Rental in Big White

Properly fitted ski boots are the single biggest factor in comfort on 118 km of pistes. Local shops carry the latest models from Salomon, Atomic, Lange, and Tecnica — fitted by qualified bootfitters who know the terrain. If they don't feel right after the first day, swap them at no extra cost.

Ski Helmet Rental in Big White

Certified helmets (CE EN 1077) from €5/day. Modern shells with MIPS rotational impact protection are available at most shops in Big White. Helmets are mandatory for under-18s in many resorts and strongly recommended for everyone — better to rent than fly with one.

Ski Jacket Rental in Big White

Waterproof shells and insulated jackets sized for layering. Big White's typical november – april conditions can swing from −15 °C blue-sky days to wet sleet at lower altitudes — rental options cover both.

Complete Ski Package in Big White

Skis + boots + poles bundled, the most cost-effective option for full-week stays. Typical pricing in Big White: CAD$45–CAD$95/day with package discounts of 15–25 % compared to renting items separately. Package level matched to your skill — beginner, sport, or performance.

Children's Ski Rental in Big White

Properly sized children's skis, boots, and helmets — adjusted to weight not just height for safer release-binding behaviour. Kids' ski sets are typically 30–50 % cheaper than adult equivalents in Big White; many shops offer free helmets when renting a full kids' package.

Beginner Ski Package in Big White

Forgiving skis (shorter than your height, softer flex) with comfortable beginner boots — built to make first turns easier on Big White's nursery slopes. Some shops bundle ski-school discount vouchers with their beginner packages, worth checking at booking.

Ski Poles Rental in Big White

Lightweight aluminium and carbon poles available individually if you're bringing your own skis and boots. Sized to your height by the shop on pickup.

Ski Goggles Rental in Big White

UV-protected lenses for high-altitude bluebird days, plus high-contrast lenses for flat light and snow conditions — both worth having for Big White's top altitude of 2319 m.

Après-Ski and Village Life

The self-contained village means après-ski starts at your ski-in door — Happy Valley Adventure Park has a tube park and outdoor skating rink for families, while GunBarrel Saloon on the main plaza becomes the social hub from 3:30pm with live music on weekends.
