Ski areas in southern BC
I'm planning a road trip focused on XC skiing in the next week or two, coming up from Washington into BC. I have been to Whistler/Callaghan, Silver Star/Sovereign Lake, and Dawn Mountain (and Canmore in Alberta). But there are so many more XC venues that look excellent. I won't be able to hit them all, but I'd like to ski at several.
Locals or folks who've skied these places, please weigh in to help my prioritize. If you have other recommendations let me know. Challenging trails, good conditions/grooming, and great scenery are all appreciated. I am an advanced XC skier; I'll be bringing multiple pairs of skate and classic skis.
