RED MOUNTAIN: the last great, unspoiled resort
Located in Rossland, BC, 1st stop on Canada’s famous Powder Highway, fiercely independent RED delivers 3,850 acres of pristine skiing, putting us in the Top 10, size-wise, in N. America. With a new chairlift and 7 more runs over 300 additional acres on Topping Creek to streamline skier flow to Grey Mountain, this is the Year of RED. With 7.6m of annual snowfall, $10/run cat-skiing, a brand new boutique hotel and a modern hostel at the base, itβs no wonder The NY Times voted us (and our friendly locals) their β#8 Best Place in the World to Visit.β We also nabbed “Most Underrated Resortβ from Skiing. Wondering what β#1 Most Acres Per Skierβ means? Fresh turns you don’t have to fight for.
Our numbers don’t lie.
Top 10 Total Skiable Acres in North America
At RED, visitors can choose from 119 runs spread across three stellar mountains that feature everything from wide-open groomers to steep, powder-filled glades. With more than 3,850 skiable acres and 890 meters (2,919 feet) of vertical terrain serviced by 8 total lifts, there is a lot to explore at RED. The abundant snow, friendly staff and locals, and the short lift lines are just a few reasons why our guests fall in love.
Not a number cruncher?
then take in the eye candy.
With 360 degree views of the infamous Kootenay Sea, the towns of Rossland and Trail as well as the beautiful Columbia River all from the mountain, those “scenic breaks” will be happening left and right – which we all know are simply just excuses to rest those legs, but thatβs ok with us. That’s what we’re here for.
