Big White Ski Resort will make its biggest-ever single-year investment this year when it drops $10 million on infrastructure for the hill.

The resort says a large chunk of that money, $3.9 million, will be put toward construction of a new Powder Chair.

The four-passenger, fixed-grip lift will replace the 40-year-old triple chair, increasing passenger capacity by 1,900 per hour.
