RED is a world unto itself. If you can see it, chances are you can ski it. We are famous for our peaks with 360-degree descents (rather than just a “front side” and “back side”). And we’re infamous for our uncrowded, unhurried vibe. People come here for our pristine powder and legendary tree skiing but end up staying because of the incredible variety on-offer.

From in-bounds cliffs and pillow lines to cat-skiing and high-speed groomers chasing your friends at Star Wars speeds, pew-pew!, RED’s vast terrain is where The Good Life goes down. (Get yours, yeah?)

Rossland, the glorious gold mining town that’s home to RED, was voted Canada’s #1 ski town two years in a row. You instantly have a LOT in common with these folks who live to ride, whether it’s snowboards in the winter or bikes in the summer (usually both!).

You can feel the camaraderie at the gourmet grocery store and on the chair ascending Granite Mountain. You’ll see four generations of a family heading up to the hill together, smiles all around – and ripping down the hill faster than you thought possible. Or you may run into that ancient telemarker with so much ice in his beard that he looks like a Tundra Wookie, but who shares with you the sickest tree run you’ve ever bagged in your life. It had no name. And neither did he.

People first come here for a ski weekend…and then send for their stuff back home. The Good Life just doesn’t get any better.

Nothing deflates a delicious day on the mountain quite like returning to some dank, dark condo that was maybe built for Hobbits. At RED, we pride ourselves on accom options that’ll keep your stoke up day and night. We know those burning quads need a good bed, some good food, and a clean couch you can sink into.

Whether you’re a world traveler on a shredder’s shoestring budget or a baller rockin’ on your boss’s dime, RED’s got you covered in style with what we like to call some of the best “creature comforts” around. From Nowhere Special, our styley-modern hostel at the base, to the Josie, a boutique ski-in ski-out hotel, to our cornerstone condos, we take warm, clean, and relaxing seriously so you don’t have to. Sleep fast—morning comes quickly!

Rossland and RED were both born out of goldmines and grit. Nothing here is fancy or fake, just real-deal wonderful. From the granite buildings on Rossland’s main drag to the miner’s shacks that have been reimagined as dirtbag pads, this is a place with a pulse.

When picking up a mellow six, you might notice a strange statue of a hearty Norwegian man surveying his kingdom. That’s Olaus Jeldness, the patron saint of skiing around these parts. He brought skiing to RED and his infectious passion for tempting gravity lives on. The engraving on the Olaus Jeldness Trophy from 1908 says it all: “Play not for gain but for sport. Leap not for gold but glee.”

The Good Life is waiting for you this winter right here at RED Mountain in Rossland, British Columbia.
