Area C (Silver Star)
The landscape around SilverStar Mountain Resort is a forested upland of British Columbia’s Monashee Mountains, which has shaped both the built environment and local life. Situated above the North Okanagan, the resort is organised around a compact, purpose-built village and a broad network of alpine runs cut through conifer forest. SilverStar developed from a local ski hill opened in 1958 into a four-season mountain destination, where downhill skiing and snowboarding share the terrain with extensive cross-country skiing. Its village architecture draws on the look of a late-19th-century mining settlement, giving the resort a distinctive western character. Rolling ridges and wooded valleys beyond the developed slopes place it firmly in the interior mountain country of British Columbia.

Area C sits in British Columbia’s Okanagan Valley, where rural uplands extend east of Vernon between farmland and wooded slopes. Rather than a compact municipality, it is an electoral area within the Regional District of North Okanagan, with dispersed homes and agricultural properties shaping its character. The wider valley is part of the traditional territory of the Syilx/Okanagan people and has long been associated with orchard growing and agriculture.

British Columbia has served as Canada’s Pacific frontier since joining Confederation in 1871. This vast western province extends from the Pacific coast across the Coast Mountains and interior plateaus to the Canadian Rockies; these coordinates lie in its sparsely settled northern interior. The Fraser, British Columbia’s longest river, drains a large part of the province before reaching the Strait of Georgia. First Nations have shaped these lands for millennia, and their living cultures remain integral to communities throughout the province. Victoria, on Vancouver Island, is the provincial capital, while Vancouver is its largest city and a major Pacific port. Forestry, mining, fisheries and outdoor travel all reflect a terrain where waterways and mountain corridors matter.

Canada has served as a frontier between French and British colonial powers since the 17th century. The world’s second-largest country extends from Atlantic shores to the Pacific and Arctic coasts, with the Canadian Shield, the Rocky Mountains, the Great Lakes and the St. Lawrence River shaping its vast geography. First Nations, Inuit and Métis peoples are central to Canada’s identity, while Ottawa’s Parliament Hill represents its federal political life. French remains the official language of Quebec, adding a distinct dimension to the country’s public culture. See how Canada connects across North America by browsing webcams in neighbouring regions.
