Biggest Little Hill — Mount Baldy February 19, 2020 – Posted in: News, Video
Nestled deep within the Okanagan Valley, there’s an offbeat, community-driven ski hill called Mount Baldy.
A large mountain that despite being abundant in snowfall and rich in terrain, has never fully been able to crack the shell towards attracting much outside visitation. Because of this, Mount Baldy and its rich offerings has remained firmly within the hands and to the enjoyment of a tight-knit ski village at its base.
Mount Baldy is the second of three distinct, community-driven ski hills to be featured in our Biggest Little Hill series.

Although they took place during the same time, the Banked & Janked event and the #BiggestLittleHill series are both seperate from each other.

I love this. My husband and I have been coming from Canoe B.C to ski this hill for the last 10 years. Pass holders for the last couple. No mountain compares…and we’ve done them all. This video explains why we come perfectly!!

Love Mnt. Baldy,
we use to run the concession way back in time. We skied the hill with my wife and 2 boys. Brings bad some of my best memories.
One July 1st Jim smith took a small group of us to the top of the Mtn. in a snow cat and we skied the back bowl. I took a tumble on about my second turn, it was steep, and slide down about 1000 ft. That was the end of a perfect run. Never to be forgotten. Hope the Smiths are still involved. They are a great family.
Cheers, an old friend,
Bob Cram

Always great to hear these first-hand stories from people like yourself who have connections to these hills during their earlier years.
Cheers to those turns, Bob!
