Mid-week, with new snow, can be a good for a day's riding. Not much fun on weekends and for long periods. If you're looking for park; go to Grouse or Seymour nearby. Night riding and the beginner slope are its main pluses.

ON THE SLOPES Local and small, but some good snow days

OFF THE SLOPES Vancouver is just 30 mins away

MONEY WISE Day pass is good value if you use it for night riding as well. It would be a good place to learn before going to a destination resort... Whistler anyone?
