New Free RED to Rossland Ski Bus for 2023/24

Say goodbye to bus passes, tokens, and punch cards for the new RED to Rossland ski bus. Free for everyone and now up-sized to transport up to 44 passengers, the new bus and will run 7 days a week, from 7am to 6:30pm. Now it’s easier than ever for our on-hill guests to explore all that Rossland has to offer with its amazing restaurants, historic downtown and legit-sized grocery store, while offering the same flexibility and reliability to our local community to hit the mountain with ease. The larger shuttle should alleviate some of the rush hour parking lot crowding of past seasons, not to mention we’ve also upped our total stops from six last year to twenty(!) this year between Rossland and RED for additional convenience to our community and on-mountain staff throughout town.

Stay tuned for the full list of stops and timetable
