MEET THE OWNERS
The pair manages the business with a fervent gusto akin only to those truly obsessed with powder skiing, mountain living, and the constant desire to have fun. Their goal has always been to live an active, healthy lifestyle while being continually challenged and inspired. Having the lodge allows them to meet extraordinary people from around the world who share similar philosophies in life.
It was Patric who initially conceived of and designed the concept of Snowwater. Having played in the mountains since he was fifteen, ‘bagging any peak’ he could find, he spent all his time in time outdoors, eventually becoming a forester and arborist. He bought the lodge property in 1993, built the main timber frame structure in 1994, and began offering snowmobile ski touring trips soon after that. Thus, Snowwater was born.

MEET THE OWNERS
Meet the man behind the scenes, our partner, Chris Beresford. Although not present in the day-to-day operations, Chris works closely with Patric and Maria to develop Snowwater into a premier destination resort. He shares our passion for nature and backcountry skiing and spends a good deal of time skiing with us in the winter. He looks forward to meeting all of you. Continually upgrading his own skills you may see him skiing in your group!
