Last week of January or middle of February is when i would be going.
I've been going to Kimberley for the past 2 years and i really like it. Like the small mountain vibe and what not.
I really could care less about park, but which has better snow? Also, how busy does Big White usually get?
Thanks

i would suggest kimberly, big white can get busy at times and pretty foggy. if you dont care about park then its kimberly for sure. the people there are nice, it doesnt feel like they're just trying to get your money and dont care bout you.

as long as its not an american holiday it will be pretty quiet at big white during that time, pretty small lift lines usually around that time...snow is usually pretty good in february at big white, january is always different, could be good or bad. can't say anything about kimberly as i've never ridden there but big white is a pretty good choice as far as amount and multiple types of terrain. possibly consider silver star as well?

but if your looking for steeps and alot of snow go to revy...

You'll find more steeps in Kimberley, but Big White has a park. Fernie is where the snow is though, hahha.
