It’s been a great season with SkiBig3 here in the Canadian Rockies! With a strong start in November, many skiers and snowboarders got powder turns on their first run of the season. The larch trees clung on to their bright needles well into winter, making the mountain vistas even more beautiful with a dusting of gold. With mid-winter conditions carrying into Spring and powder days throughout the winter, we didn’t go long without another ‘best day ever’.

Check out our highlights round-up featuring mini edits from our very own SkiBig3 Ambassador Team, and our top photos from throughout the winter.

This Easter weekend is your last chance to soak in the Spring vibes at all three ski resorts, with @mtnorquay closing their winter slopes tomorrow. But don't worry – @sunshinevillage is open until May 20th and @skilouise until May 5th. The skiing is great and there's so much fun to be had, get out there while you can! Happy Easter! 🐇🌷❄️ 🎥: @dannothomson #SkiBig3

In the backcountry terrain just outside @skilouise , @alpine_anna had a rare encounter with the elusive lynx. Seeing Canadian Rockies wildlife is special, and should always be approached with ample respect and distance. // 📸: @alpine_anna // #SkiBig3
