Early winter on the Powder Highway, British Columbia
Canadian Rockies, Canada – Fernie Alpine Resort & Kicking Horse Mountain Resort, both located on the famed Powder Highway of British Columbia, a region known for over 50 feet of snow annually, and each ski resort known for their high snowfall each ski season, have already seen the foreshadows of an early winter, enduring 3 early snowstorms in the beginning of September.
“Early snowfall of this magnitude and frequency is just incredible! It is not uncommon for us to get early snowfall even in the heat of summer but to have three consecutive storms in last 8 days is just amazing! The Farmer’s Almanac predicts a big winter for the Canadian Rockies region and this is early snowfall is stoking the excitement for skiers and snowboarders for sure,” said Matt Mosteller.
