When it comes to mountain vacations in North America, the Canadian province of British Columbia is a mountain resort paradise. There are very few locations in North America that can compare with alpine glory offered up by the ski hills in British Columbia. Whether you visit the local hills of Vancouver, or you head further north to the Whistler/Blackcomb region, the mountains of British Columbia are truly second to none.

It is the combination of ocean & mountain access that makes Vancouver such a tourist favorite. more » |
