Overall
A relatively small local's hill in British Columbia, Apex is known for its solid advanced terrain and quality snow (though less of it compared to other resorts). Expert backcountry terrain is accessible within a short hike and while the high elevation can suffer from wind, the lower terrain is well protected. The resort is mostly serviced by a single high-speed quad with very few crowds. Don't miss the Gunbarrel Coffee in the on-mountain restaurant - a flaming grand marnier poured down a double barrel shotgun into liqueur and coffee.
