Had a blast at Red Mountain these last couple days! This was my first time at the mountain and let me tell you it did not disappoint! We were lucky enough to get a bunch of new snow the weekend prior, so the terrain was endless. Great groomers. Great off-piste. Awesome views! Will definitely make an annual trip to this mountain moving forward!

Red Mountain is an awesome hill to ski on. Good powder, good trails - they range from easy to hard. The is located in the Kootneays of BC which means the weather is usually sunny and clear skies. Rossland is located about 10-15 minutes from Red Resort and offers lots of options for eating, having a good pint, warming up from a coffee and muffin.
