Highway washouts expected to take toll on the Okanagan’s already struggling tourism industry
Description
November 25, 2021

Highway washouts restricting access between the Lower Mainland and the Okanagan expected to have an impact on the winter tourism season in the valley--where the vast majority of visitors at this time of year are from the south coast. As Klaudia Van Emmerik reports, ski resorts like Big White among those which may be hardest hit.
