Kimberly – not just a girl’s name

Say Kimberly, and I can’t help but smile. Only one week and a few fantastic days of fun, snow and exhaustion…On my way to Kimberly BC, from our comfortable hotel in Cranbrook, I was actually pleased to drive the spacious roads to the Kimberly ski and snowboard resort. On passing through one small village, we even had to avoid about a dozen deer on the main road! Don’t worry, no deer were harmed in the making of this road trip.

The ski resort was better than I had ever imagined, and the Keg restaurant at the bottom of the mountain was truly a haven for the wet and weary! After an amazing day of snowboarding, the beer and fireplace were some of the most welcome distractions I can remember. What a surprise when the grooming machines came out at night, only to leave us the best runs of the day to be skied or boarded at NIGHT! The night boarding was fantastic.

Until next time, stay classy Kimberly.
