British Columbia, Canada is a winter wonderland attracting visitors to the province from all over the world including central and eastern Canada because BC in the west is under sunny skies most of time well the rest of Canada is under snow. Hence why in BC, Canada a golf game at the lower elevations and skiing at the alpine elevations in the same day is possible and common.

Most arrive to explore the snow covered higher elevations in the alpine peaks. BC is very mountainous and there are many peaks with snow attracting people to the province to snow ski, snowboard, cross country ski, snowmobile, snowshoe, storm watch or attend a BC spa or wine tasting at one of the local wineries.

During the snow covered winter months BC, Canada ski hills buzz with activity as outdoor snow enthusiasts gather to experience some of the best ski and snowboard runs and trails available in Canada. But almost every time there is snow, it is at the higher elevations on our ski hills, leaving the golf courses, parks and trails down low enjoying sunny, cloudy and "fresh air" skies. You may experience the rain factor at times.

Down at sea level, where snow is rare, the community theatres and art galleries hum with activity as people whisper amongst themselves praising the skills and talents of our local artists.

A big misnomer, globally, is that all of Canada is snow country every day and throughout most of the year. Hellooo ... no igloos here. Canada's weather is very diverse in each region.

Let the truth be known, some provinces receive snow in the winter and spring months in quantity amounts, no doubt, but British Columbia is the exception to the rule.The Rocky Mountains, the winds blowing off the Pacific Ocean affords BC, Canada a whole different weather system then what most of Canada is receiving. BC is the year round playground of the northwest, per say.

In the winter and spring seasons come and enjoy some of the cultural arts and theatre available in BC like any of the art festivals, gallery exhibits, museums and "world class" theatres.

In the peak of the winter season it is relatively busy for British Columbia travel winter tourism businesses. All visitors planning on visiting British Columbia, Canada during the winter should plan well ahead of their departure dates... using this website of course eh.
