In the winter, Vancouver and Whistler turn into a skier's dream. The skiing at
Whistler, and Grouse Mountain can be
considered phenomenal. This snow however, does not spread down to all of
Vancouver. Vancouver experiences some slush, and very few snow falls.
Temperatures can range from an average low of 2 degrees C (36F) in the winter
and most of Vancouver's rain occurs during October and continues through to
March. The mountain peaks stay snow covered from November until May and give
visitors, and locals a beautiful sight to see each morning.
What to wear: You should bring warm sweaters, cotton long sleeved
tops, jeans, warm cozy pajamas, and a big warm jacket. Bring wool socks,
scarves, gloves, and boots as well.
