Snow Conditions in Whistler

Whistler Snow Conditions - Reliable snow
Located in the Mountain Range of British Columbia, Whistler consistently offers the reliable snow conditions and is blessed with an average annual snowfall of 10 metres / 396 inches / 33 ft per year on the summit. The snow base record for Whistler Mountain is 504 cm (197 inches, 16.4 feet) set in 1973/74. That season it snowed significantly in March and April when traditionally these months receive less snowfall.


Snow Conditions In Whistler - Moderate temperatures
Due to Whistler’s coastal proximity, temperatures are moderate through the winter season, rarely dipping below -10°C (12°F) in the valley and -15°C (5°F) in the alpine during the coldest part of the year. Average daily temeratures of -5°C (22°F) can be expected throughout most of the winter season.

Whistler Snow Conditions - Cold winters
The reasons for the very cold winters over most of Canada are the high latitude of much of the country and the generally flat and low-lying land east of the Rocky Mountains. Cold air from the Canadian Arctic has virtually no obstruction as it sweeps south and east in winter and spring, thus importing very cold conditions to most of the country
