Best Skiing Destinations: Red Mountain, British Columbia

Just north of the Washington border, this sleepy but massive resort (five peaks spread over 2,800 acres) keeps getting bigger and better. Last year it grew by almost 25 percent with the addition of Grey Mountain, which features 40-degree chutes with names like Helter Smelter. This year Red Mountain expanded into Mount Kirkup, full of wide-open tree runs. What hasn't changed? The vibe. Although there are a few more condos, there are never any lift lines and everybody still meets up at Rafters, the bar above the day lodge, to drink and listen to live music.

At Red Mountain, visitors can choose from 110 runs spread across three stellar mountains that feature everything from wide-open groomers to steep, powder-filled glades. With more than 2,682 skiable acres and 890 meters (2,919 feet) of vertical terrain serviced by 7 total lifts, there is a lot to explore at Red Mountain. The abundant snow, friendly staff and locals, and the short lift lines are just a few reasons why our guests fall in love. Red Mountain Resort is known for having a variety of challenging expert terrain and for being geared towards intermediate and expert level skiers and riders.

Voted Canada’s #1 Outdoor Town by Explore magazine, the Rossland area is a natural playground for adventure seekers from around the world. Our stunning alpine town also features all of the amenities you would expect: shopping, casual and fine dining, pubs, bars, fitness centre and more.

Rossland is located 5 miles north of the US/Canada border in the heart of the West Kootenay region of British Columbia. Rossland is a 2.5 hour drive from the Spokane, WA International Airport, or 3.5 hours drive from Kelowna, BC International Airport.
