Area C (Silver Star): Top of Comet chair on SilverStar Mountain Resort
Few places in British Columbia have a history as closely tied to mountain skiing as SilverStar Mountain. Rising to 1,915 metres in the Monashee Mountains, it stands above the Okanagan Valley northeast of Vernon. The mountain’s transformation into a visitor destination began with the opening of SilverStar Mountain Resort in 1958. Its purpose-built village and recreation infrastructure give the area a character distinct from a conventional town. Forested terrain and broad ridgelines shape the setting, while the Okanagan’s towns, lakes and vineyards lie at lower elevations. The resort is used for alpine and Nordic skiing, as well as summer mountain biking.

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.
