Itinerary:
Snow Valley is a not-for-profit organization founded in 1961 and is located just off the Whitemud Freeway on 119 Street, at the south end of Whitemud Park. Obviously, a ski hill located in the middle of Edmonton couldn't even possibly compare to anything found in the mountains, but it's still a good place to go if you want to ski or snowboard for a couple of hours. The cost for a lift pass for the evening is only is $10 + GST and if you need rental equipment this will be $10 + GST for alpine ski equipment, or $17 + GST for snowboard equipment.

You will be required to sign a Snow Valley waiver form on arrival.

Please note: Obviously, this event will have to be canceled if there is insufficient snow. However, Snow Valley does use snow-making equipment, and tends to open up before large amounts of snow cover the ground in other parts of the city. UPDATE: Snow Valley has announced that they will be opening for the season on November 28th.
