Welcome to RED Mountain.
The Good Life goes down in a place where the skiing exceeds your wildest dreams.
When epic history meets a modern culture of fun-loving powder fiends who become fast friends.
You know The Good Life when you see it. When you feel it. When it’s blasting you in the face with its cold, perfect powder. You can share it with your friends but you can never quite explain it to folks who’ve never felt it first-hand. Mostly you just babble and speak in sound effects and sometimes drool a bit with a glazed look in your eye.
You knew it was out there. In fact, it’s right here…and has been forever. Welcome to RED Mountain in Rossland, BC.
Let’s explore the goods:
More mountains to love.
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?)

See For Yourself
These videos will show you what you’ve been missing in glorious HD. Just press play to live The Good Life vicariously through these rippers.
RED: Your Community’s Centre
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.

Meet The Locals
It isn’t just a Canadian stereotype, Rossland has some of the friendliest folk around! Meet some of our friends that are living The Good Life here in Rossland.
Live Your Style
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!

Boutique @ the Base
A true sk-in ski-out gem, The Josie Hotel is tailor-made for the style-conscious traveler who knows what she likes–and ain’t afraid to ask for it. With an amazing restaurant and bar on-site, boot concierge, and a lobby built to see and be seen, The Josie will level-up your stay, guaranteed.
Legendary Leader
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.”

Hidden Cabins
Something beautifully unique here at RED Mountain is the network of “hidden” cabins that have been built over the years, both within bounds and just outside of RED’s terrain here in Rossland. Watch the video to learn more!
Now it’s your turn to
Own it. Live it. Share it.
What does The Good Life mean to you? Is it that powder day that’s sooooo stunning you can’t find words to describe it? Is it that perfect, frosty pint at Rafters when you can barely feel your legs after all-day hot laps on Granite? Maybe it’s a muscle-relaxing hot tub with your crew as the snow piles up outside for another epic day tomorrow. Or maybe it’s simply seeing the ear-to-ear grin on your preschooler as she links her first turns.

Back at Red Mountain after 9 years and blown away by the positive changes. We rode new lifts, skied way more terrain, and stayed at a slick boutique hotel right on the hill. Luckily, the epic old Start Shack we fell in love with hasn’t changed a bit. 😊
Ps. I highly recommend visiting during rosslandwintercarnival & blizzardmusicfest for maximum fun.

Took these girls down poop chute to scope their future descent down microwave. I think they got this! #thegoodlifeatred redresort
Saturdays are for the girls! 🤟
It only took our employees @m_thompstone + @canadianadventuremama a few tries to nail this trend 😏
