I am debating to get powder skis/ soft snow skis. I ski 20 days a year but plan to ski a-lot more this year. I do most of my skiing in bc Revelstoke and Fernie mainly. the rest of the time i am skiing in Banff AB. will adding a powder ski to my quiver be worth it for how much i ski and if so what width/ skis should i look at?

More skis the better!lol Go demo or rent some before you buy, this will help with finding the right ski for you. I to second @Chubz. recommendation for ON3P but dont just stop there, lots to choose from.

What's your daily driver?

If you're on a 100-110 now then you might want a big ski, if you're on an 80-95 then something 108-118 or so might make sense though you may find yourself riding a ski like that more and more and may find the performance on hardpack sufficient.

Really depends what your current skis are though.
