Geo Hiking at Big White

Are you ready for an adventure? Come to Big White on Saturday and/or Sunday to explore the mountain through a free GPS Scavenger Hunt!

Get four of your closest friends, or you can do it by yourself, and find the location of the hidden treasure boxes. Each box contains a novel and you have to collect book pages and return to the Village for the ceremony.

Best part is everyone gets a prize, but the more page you can get, the bigger the prize!

Big White sure knows how to coordinate Big scavenger hunts. 

Registration for Geo Hiking will be open from 10 am to 2 pm both days at the Bike School Desk in Village Centre Mall or pre-register online.

It looks like it will be a great weekend for an adventure – take it up to Big White!
