LEGENDARY MOUNTAINS, LEGENDARY SNOW
Skiing on RED Mountain often marks a visitor's first experience with the Rossland area. And nothing could be a better representation of what the Kootenays are really about: With 300``/7.6m of annual snowfall, wide-open groomers, epic vertical (2,919ft/890m!), in-bounds cat-skiing ($10/run!), 360-degree descents, a rich tradition, and – phew! — the BEST tree runs in BC, it's no wonder The New York Times voted RED and Rossland ``#8 Best Place in the World to Visit in 2013.`` Other accolades include #1 in Powder Magazine's ``Ski Town Throwdown,`` and ``Most Underrated Resort`` by Skiing.

High performance rentals? You bet. Terrain park? There is one, but it plays second fiddle to natural terrain. Take a look around! There are two fully serviced day lodges (Base and Paradise), and RED has the best après ski bar in Western Canada. (It’s called Rafters and it’s where you go to eat nachos amidst steaming base layers and sunburns).
