panorama<br />
mountain resort<br />
At Panorama, every day is a ski day, that’s why<br />
the resort has quickly become a favourite for New<br />
Zealanders who head north between December<br />
and April.<br />
Surrounded by the endless mountain peaks of the<br />
Canadian Rockies, Panorama offers 1,300 metres<br />
of vertical with terrain for those seeking something<br />
a little out of the ordinary. Lift lines are almost<br />
nonexistent; on many days runs like View of 1000<br />
Peaks, Rollercoaster and Top of the World feel like<br />
a private ski resort. Join the Mountain Friends for<br />
a free tour of the mountain, likely with other Kiwis<br />
seeking secret stashes. Meet up with new friends<br />
when it’s time for après.<br />
Kia ora, koutou<br />
The ski-in / ski-out village offers apartment-style<br />
accommodation right beside the lifts. Everything<br />
you’d expect of a first-rate resort is at your doorstep.<br />
Then, there’s Canada’s largest slopeside hot pools<br />
at Panorama Springs. And RK Heliski, right in the<br />
heart of the village, flying to the sort of snow seen<br />
in all the best ski movies.<br />
Up for an incredible Canadian road trip? How<br />
about the Mountain Collective’s Order of the True<br />
North? Get a pass, ski Coronet Peak and the<br />
Remarkables this Kiwi winter, then hit Panorama<br />
and other leading destinations in British Columbia<br />
and Alberta.<br />
The snow fell deep at Panorama Mountain Resort this past winter, but something was missing…<br />
If you were looking at Instagram or Facebook, we’re sure that everything appeared to be in order. Fluffy white<br />
flakes falling on the Panorama Springs Pools. Tasty raclette at the Elkhorn Cabin. Monster-X rumbling to the top<br />
of powder filled leg burners. The sun setting on the lofty summit of Mt. Nelson.<br />
So, what wasn’t quite right? It’s easy to answer. We missed the hundreds and hundreds of Kiwis that make<br />
Panorama Mountain Resort their Canadian playground each winter. Ash from Horopito didn’t fly off on his<br />
annual pilgrimage. Taynton Bowl never saw the tracks of Gav and Lorraine from Te Puke. Liz and Piha didn’t stop<br />
by to tell us about their latest North American resort mission. We’re sorry we couldn’t catch up with Mike and<br />
Ange from Christchurch in the T-Bar.<br />
While Mother Nature was as amazing as ever, our resort just wasn’t the same without our friends from<br />
Aotearoa. We know you made the best of things by catching a tonne of snapper or tramping tracks that felt like<br />
they did back in the 70s, but don’t make a habit of staying home. The mountains miss you and the Panorama<br />
team does too. Please come back and see us soon!<br />
Cheers,<br />
Marke Dickson<br />
PS: Panorama must be one of the few international resorts where Kiwis usually outnumber Aussies. Although<br />
I’m a dyed-in-the-wool Southlander, I’m not afraid to say that we missed our Australian friends too.<br />
Don’t forget, 2021 Whakapapa and Turoa season<br />
passholders are VIPs at Panorama. Stay slopeside<br />
and ski free in the 2021/22 Northern Hemisphere<br />
season! Conditions do apply so talk to a preferred<br />
New Zealand snow travel partner.<br />
There’s more to the mountains.+<br />
