Life above the clouds: The week of inversions at Big White Ski Resort
Posted On: January 12, 2016 |
The clouds came up to meet us on the mountain this week - and while it's been a little grey in the Village, skiers and snowboarders have been heading straight up the chairlifts to check out the sea of clouds before their eyes.
It's all due to a weather pattern called an inversion, where colder temperatures become trapped under a layer of warm air and form some incredible cloud formations.
Luckily for us, it all makes for some spectacular footage. Here's the sunset over the T-Bar on Sunday night, the 10th January 2016...
And here's some of the footage our guests and photographers have shared throughout the week...
