Island Lake Now Has 5.5 Metres of Snow

Island Lake Catskiing has simply been having an amazing snow year.  Over 200 cms of the white stuff has fallen in the last couple of weeks.  The consolidated base in the Alpine is around 5.5 metres or 18 feet of snow.  The Cedar Valley, in which Island Lake lies, is well known for having a unique microclimate.  “We seem to get about twice the amount of snow as the surrounding area.  The mountain here are perfectly situated to produce large amounts of snow in the winter and this winter has been the best in years” says Mike McPhee from Island Lake Catskiing.
