Great mountain especially when there is new snow. Man made snow coverage on lower mountain and night skiing. Sun bowl is a great area to ski as no crowds. Only downside is chair there needs upgrading. Limited places to eat on the hill but adequate.

There's a lot in the name - the views and scenery are great. Generally quiet and well maintained. Off-piste - specifically Taynton Bowl requires a fair old hike unless you want to catch and pay for the Cat, but its worth the effort. Hot tubs by the edge of the piste are a bonus. The resort is self-contained and convenient but if you want to get into the local town you'll need to catch the resort shuttle which can be packed out with resort staff (who are not supposed to use it unless there are empty spaces). Would happily go back again - having already visited twice, but don't expect regular fresh snow - like all resorts mountain weather IS unpredictable, and while the snow might be chucking down at a neighbouring resort, you might be left watching and waiting - yes - even in the Rockies!

Panorama iMountain Resort is a monster of a mountain in the heart of the Canadian Rockies providing something for every level of skier.

Offering well groomed blues and interesting reds through undulating tree lined glades to the summit at 2,450m for both the beginner and intermediate skier, while satisfying the more adventurous with endless ungroomed off piste open bowl and tree decents coupled with amazing views of the Rockies.
And for those that desire the ultimate experience the Heli skiing is some of the best that can be found anywhere.
There are no 5 star hotels, but a good variety of excellent accommodation is available from basic hotel rooms to self catering condominiums in a ski in ski out resort.
And at the end of a hard days skiing there is the chance to ease those aching muscles in the outdoor family hot pools, followed by Canadian hospitality at the lively T bar.
This resort has something for almost everyone!
