Some piccies & a movie from Panorama Mountain Village (Canada)

I decided to stay at home this time, but I let Stew go with his mate Mark (ski virgin). So I'll let him carry on the story........

Panorama is in British Columbia's Rockies. It's a purpose built resort, a few miles up the road from the lake-side town of Invermere. It's not very well known to the Brits, I think the long transfer from Calgary puts them off. The village is quite quiet too, not much nightlife at all. But the ski area is fairly large with something for everyone & it has one of the biggest verticals in North America.

We stayed at the Pine Inn, which truly was ski-in/ski-out, the lift was a matter of meters from the door. It was the first time I'd stayed slope side, I really enjoyed it :-)

We had one snowy day during the week, the rest were pretty hot & sunny. As a result, for the last couple of days, the snow adjacent to the Mile 1 Quad was very slushy by the afternoon. I just stayed above the first lift in the afternoons, it was like boarding in a giant slushy as you approached the village at the end of the day ;-)
