Three Mountains
Each of Sun Peaks' three mountains has a unique personality. Tod Mountain (elevation 2,152m/7,060ft) was the first of the three to open to the public in 1961. Boarders and skiers can test their deep powder skills in alpine bowls or try downhill runs that lead to the village via the Burfield chair, which runs from bottom to top on the west side of Tod Mountain.
