Callaghan Country is located in the Coastal Snowbelt – guaranteeing abundant snowfalls and a reliable snowpack.
The Callaghan Valley is ringed on three sides by glaciated terrain; as the warm moist maritime air pushes up over the glaciers of Brandywine, Metal Dome, and Powder Mountains, the air gets super-cooled.
The Pemberton Ice Cap and the Rainbow Mountain glacier lie to the north and east, which means that Callaghan Country is a natural dumping ground for lots of the white stuff.
Despite the copious amounts of snow that the area receives each winter, the region enjoys the same moderate Pacific temperatures as other Northwest ski areas.
