  • Winter Agent Training Presentation.Pdf
    Our Identity We’re pretty happy being second. Because...while we're the second largest ski area in Canada, it's a little quieter sitting back behind number one. It gives us permission to set our own pace, run our own race, and be a bit more relaxed and laid back. As it turns out, that's what people love about us. We don’t have crowds or a scene. But we do have a life—a mountain life to be exact. It's a way of going about working, playing, raising our families and growing a community in British Columbia's interior mountains. From the outside, our little town may look like a European transplant, but inside, it is 100% Canadian—disarmingly friendly, unwaveringly inclusive and instinctively open-hearted. And despite being a full-service resort, we don't think of ourselves as having a "product". Or an "offering". Or even "amenities", for that matter. We do, however, have real experiences served up by independent business owners and operators who call this place home, and live to share its gifts. And all of this suits us just fine. Because we’re a community of spirited and proud people who do things a little differently. Where others may value accolades, we value—well—values. We believe hard work delivers progress and innovation. We believe we should always deliver on what we say. And we believe that instead of blowing our own horn, we should simply deliver good, old-fashioned hospitality...the kind that we know makes people want to come back to us over and over again.
