context_page_description: Powder King Mountain Resort, commonly referred to as Powder King, is located in the Pine Pass area of the Northern Rockies of British Columbia’s Northeastern Interior. It is the only year-round destination alpine resort in North America found alongside a major route. Ranked #3 in all of North America, the area boasts the best snow quality of all Canadian ski hills.
  Most of the 37 run names have a Beatles theme. The slopes offer a mix of expert, intermediate and beginner runs, with one three-person chair lift to mid-mountain, one T-bar to the top, and a handle tow at the base to assist and teach beginners.
  Envisioned as a "Whistler of the North", little of the grandiose plans of various owners came to fruition. Now known for its less crowded and more intimate environment, “Whisper of the North” has become the slogan. The current complex has a full service restaurant, 35-room ATCO hostel-style hotel, and a small resort community of individual homes and condominiums. Members of the Canadian Ski Patrol regularly keep watch over the hill.
