For Immediate Release: November 11, 2015

IT’S OFFICIAL – SKI & SNOWBOARD SEASON IN CANADA HAS BEGUN

Kananaskis, AB – Skiing and Snowboarding season kicked off today at Nakiska and was an amazing day on the slopes!  Big news for this upcoming Saturday we are going to have the largest family friendly learning area open, Kids’ World, at Nakiska – so don’t miss out on the snow play that’s perfect for families.  We’ll have a perfectly groomed snow surface ready for first timers or kids and adults just wanting to hone their skills before they head up on the mountain.  We know this is important early in the season and the Mountain Operations team at Nakiska has been working hard to get our Magic Carpet and Kids’ World ready earlier than ever!  As one of the first family learning area in the Canadian Rockies to open, we’re proud to support getting everyone a chance to try skiing and snowboarding!

Check out some of social media posts from our guests enjoying their first Nakiska turns of the season, we love sharing all the smiles.
