Panorama ski area in Canada’s British Columbia was sold for an undisclosed sum by former owners Intrawest recently.

The centre has a number of new initiatives for this year including the new Showoff Terrain Park alongside the Mile 1 Quad. This new freestyle terrain has quickly been rarted the biggest and best in the Rockies according the resort staff.

The resort also greatly improved facilities for first-time skiers and riders by enlarging the novice ski area and installing the 135 metre long Red Carpet lift.

In addition this year, intermediate and advanced riders are benefitting from extensive trail work. The expanse of Founders Ridge is now easier to reach and easier to ski. Ostrander Alley, Strobl Strasse, and McIntosh Way have been re-graded and it’s now an easy cruise to some of the best intermediate skiing available.

Further up the mountain, Panorama has opened a formerly inaccessible area between View of 1000 Peaks and Stumbock’s. Deep powder turns, glades, and varied terrain now give skiers and riders a glimpse of what to expect in this new area; a potential that will be fully realized in coming years.

Visitors will notice that the resort is really trying to offer them more value for the dollar.

“For the folks here at Panorama, it’s essential that snow sports remain accessible to all”, said Marke Dickson, Marketing Manager. “We know that skiers and riders are looking for value, now more than ever, so we’ve worked hard to bundle popular activities with daily necessities; this means savings for our guests.”

Offers include free breakfast for two each day, a free family activity, and additional discounts on lift tickets.
