Sasquatch Mountain Resort is in Hemlock Valley, between Mission and Agassiz, 154 kilometres east of Vancouver. The resort says it’s about 2 hours’ drive from the city. It has 37 marked runs on more than 205 acres. The summit is 1,317 metres (4,321 feet) and the base 980 metres (3,215 feet), for 335 metres (1,099 feet) of vertical. The area first opened for skiing in December 1969 as Hemlock Valley.
Two cams look up the lift lines of the Yeti Cruiser (Blue Chair) and the Sasquatch Chair (Green Chair). Top of Sasquatch shows the top of the Green Chair, and Beginner Area shows the bottom by the SnowSchool. With a cam at the top and one at the base, you can see how far down the mountain the snow reaches. The snow report measures new snow at the alpine weather plot, and there’s no snow stake cam.
None of the cams shows Hemlock Valley Road, so check the resort’s road report before you drive.
From Vancouver, take Highway 1 east to Abbotsford, Highway 11 north to Mission, and Highway 7 east. Turn left on Morris Valley Road at the Sasquatch Inn, then left onto Hemlock Valley Road up to the Day Lodge. From Agassiz, take Highway 7 west and turn right on Morris Valley Road. Abbotsford International Airport is 1 hour 18 minutes away, and Vancouver International is the other option.
The resort says the BC Ministry of Transportation requires every vehicle on Hemlock Valley Road to carry chains that fit, and snow tires and four-wheel drive don’t exempt you. The road is paved for the first two thirds. DriveBC shows highway conditions.
Sasquatch is on the Indy Pass with 2 days. The Indy Base Pass has blackout dates; the Indy+ Pass doesn’t. It isn’t on the Epic or Ikon Pass.
