    Best month to hit Big White?

    I am going to Big White for a week sometime in the near future (a friend moved to Kelowna so free couch to sleep on!) and I am trying to decide when to go. I was hoping someone had some historical info on what snowfall tends to be like in February/March compared to January. I have heard that Feb is generally a good month. . . any insight? Thanks!
    I don't pretend to know all the answers, or even the questions. Hey, where am I?

    Don't know big white specifically, but lots of other interior areas (KHMR, Red, Fernie) all are prime in Febuary. Higher places like KHMR can be even better some Marches, while Fernie often goes to spring by then. Big White would probably fit in somewhere between the two due to elevation and location. January if often a drier month, but it all depends on the year...

    late feb-early march is usually pretty good... seems like the big dumps happen more around that time, even into late march.

    I was perusing the BCLA's beer selection and noticed that Okanogan Springs has a Big White / Silver Star promo (The case I bought was sans discount lift voucher fuckin' BCLA). The beer (pale ale) is decent and if you get a lift discount it's worth checking out (skiing then drinking)

    I'm also going mid Feb. draging the wife and kids. I was hoping to slip off and ski Cliff Chair. Does anyone have a update on this, I know it's been closed since the slide.
