}About the bigwhite.com API
The Big White Ski Resort API covers 11 endpoints delivering live mountain conditions, operational data, and resort information. get_daily_snow_report alone returns 10 fields including new_snow_12hr, new_snow_24hr, new_snow_7day, snow_base, visibility, and wind conditions. Endpoints also cover lift status, grooming reports, terrain park conditions, webcam images, ticket pricing, hot deals, and the resort event calendar.
Mountain Conditions and Weather
get_resort_status_bar returns a compact snapshot — runs_open, lifts_running, snow_base, temperature, and snowfall_24hr — suitable for dashboards or status widgets. For deeper detail, get_daily_snow_report expands that into 10 fields including skies, wind, visibility, and snowfall across 12-hour, 24-hour, and 7-day windows. get_weather_forecast returns a day-by-day array with description, high, and low temperature fields covering the coming forecast period.
Lifts, Runs, and Terrain
get_lift_status returns an array of every lift at the resort with name, status (Open, Closed, or Standby), and operating hours. get_grooming_report pairs each run with its grooming status (groomed, ungroomed, or unknown) and difficulty rating (green, blue, black, or double-black). get_park_conditions lists terrain park features — including park lanes, snowcross, and mini park — each with a descriptive status string reflecting current setup.
Cameras, Pricing, Deals, and Events
get_webcams returns an array of all mountain webcams with name and image_url fields, while get_pow_cam_image gives direct access to the current Pow Cam image URL. get_tickets_and_passes returns per-category lift ticket pricing including both online and window prices with any noted savings. get_hot_deals lists active promotions with title, description, and a full URL to the deal details page. get_events surfaces upcoming resort events with title, link, date range, and category data.
No Required Inputs
Every endpoint in this API takes no input parameters — each call returns the current live state of that data segment. All 11 endpoints are stateless GET requests, making them straightforward to poll on a schedule or integrate into alerting workflows.
