What if a Chairlift Had a Personality?

Canada's Second Largest ski area
Sun Peaks receives 6 metres of snow annually, and the mountains are covered with light, dry powder that Interior British Columbia is famous for. 4,270 acres of skiable terrain is spread across the three skiable peaks, and each mountain is easily accessible from the central village.
