Line 29: '''Sunshine Village''' is a Canadian [[ski resort]], located within [[Banff National Park]] in [[Alberta]], [[Canada]]. It is one of three major ski resorts located in the Banff National Park.<ref>http://www.britishairways.com/travel/ski-holidays-lake-louise/public/en_gb</ref>. The Sunshine base area is located {{convert\|15\|km\|mi\|abbr=off}} Southwest of the town of [[Banff, Alberta]]. By car, it is about one hour and thirty minute drive from the city of [[Calgary]]. The Sunshine exit on the [[Trans Canada Highway]] is {{convert\|8\|km\|mi\|abbr=on}} west of the town of Banff. Sunshine Ski and Snowboard Resort spans the [[Continental Divide of the Americas\|Great Divide]] which defines the [[Alberta]]-[[British Columbia]] border in the [[Canadian Rockies]]. The cold, dry climate generally produces a type of snow with a relatively low moisture content referred to as "[[Champagne Powder]]". Sunshine Village ski runs and lifts are accessed via an eight person high speed gondola. The gondola takes people from the parking lot (or bus terminal) to Goat's Eye mountain in 10 minutes and to the upper Village area in 18 minutes. There are 10 chairlifts and 107 trails within the alpine valley formed by the three mountains (Mount Standish, Lookout Mountain, and Goat's Eye Mountain) that constitute Sunshine Village.
