The ski area of Apex Mountain Resort is actually on Beaconsfield Mountain. This is an appropriately named mountain. When you get to the top and look around, you will see lots of tempting sidecountry and backcountry, where an avalanche beacon is required.

Quickdraw is the high speed quad that takes you from the small village/cabin area to the top of Beaconsfield. This one chair services a ton of terrain. The other lifts service lower parts of runs that Quickdraw is used to access.

The T-Bar can be used to lap the terrain parks. This lift can get quite busy at night, as this is the only area that is lit up for night skiing. The Claim Jumper park is only open during the day, but the smaller park is open day and night.

Apex is the closest to Vancouver of the Okanogan resorts, and is pretty good value overall.

This location at the edge of the Rockies provides Fortress with quite a bit ... [ Read More ]
