Nestled in the pristine wilderness of the Canadian Rockies, Powder King Mountain Resort offers the best of the great outdoors, from virgin snow and breathtaking drops, to the gentle groomed slopes of beginner runs – and some of the best powder skiing in British Columbia! Most of the terrain favours intermediate-level skiers.
Powder King Mountain Resort is located in the centre of Pine Pass on Highway 97 in Northeast BC, 42 miles (67 km) west of Mackenzie and 123 miles (195 km) north of Prince George. From Vancouver, head north on Highway 97 to Prince George, then head 122 miles (195 km) farther north to the mountain. From Edmonton, head north to Dawson Creek, and then come 131 miles (210 km) south to Powder King.
The PK Express will run from Prince George to Powder King every day the mountain is open. Leaving Pine Center Mall at 6:20am and The Hart Mallat 6:40am. The return trip leaves Powder King approximately half an hour after the lift closes. It is recommended that you buy your tickets AND book your seat in advance – call 1-866-POW-KING.
