Fernie offers some incredible snow conditions and can boast up to 29 feet (9m) of magical powder each year, with some of the steepest inbound terrain around. There is plenty of variety and terrain, although the resort is perhaps rather challenging for beginners.A good idea is to take advantage of the free mountain tour to get orientated, as well as learning about potential avalanche zones. There is excellent snowboarding on offer too. Along with a half pipe and a terrain park, there is awesome natural terrain to explore. There are also plenty of ski schools for beginners, 10 lifts, and a vertical drop of 2,816 feet (858m).
