Red Mountain

Winter 10/11 Nice place, but not dumped for a while, but nice forest skiing

was there for three months 2004. steep deep and tight summarizes the place well. basically trees everywhere on the two mountains. the question is just how tight. The sooner the harder. The system consists of two mountains, red and granite mt. both are tiltable 360 ​​degrees. very nice atmosphere in town (rossland) 5 min by car from the mountain. However, there is no friends on powderdays, which means that the locals do not work or pick up a lift. Once the lifköer exists before lunch is a powderday, then the biggest surfaces are picked up. Fortunately, the snow is still further in the woods. The weather is often really bad with a bad sight. But it does not matter so much. Stick to the trees.
The ride around the red is really good with several nice walks with a good steep relative open terrain that stays untouched until the next snowfall.
Red has just been bought and the new owner is planning to expand. How it will be, the future will determine. Read on ski-red.com that you were thinning out the trees, which would make a sick good woodland sicker !!

Spent 4 days without snow and sun. Great skiing in Paradise and just food in Paradise lodge. Spring skiing was nice but not what we came for, great potential. There are tops to climb and ride. Go to Trail (8 km from Rossland) and watch hockey, Smokies, the last Amateur Team from Canada, becoming world champion in 1961.

Wonderful, could only stay for three days, but it's really nice may say. We slept in the back of a car, so it was a little cold at night. But the ride weighed it all a bit, a big crumb.

Has been in Rossland / Red mountain for 1 month and 2 1/2 remains. So far, it has been better than expected. Even though there are only 3 lifts, the area offers a wide range of fantastic rides. Steep and good forest skiing.
Plus for nice population, "snow-host" & cheap prices.
Minus for nightlife & slow lifts.
Now I'm just waiting for more snow ......

Were there one day at the end of March 2002. Sleepy and a little people, but steep and nice skiing. The resort is reportedly 8.7 m snow per year on average, but when I was there it was at the end of the season and ice-skating on the slopes, not the best time for a fair assessment.
The ride is on Red, Granite and Paradise Mountain. The actual Red M is nothing to have, it is Granite / Paradise that applies.
The lift system is old but works well.
When it's snowing, it's probably a top place with forest that binds the snow nicely. The resort is well medium compared to other resorts in BC, good fall height and steep.
There are hostels in the village on the way up to the resort, "Montain Shadow Hostel".
Plus for steep hill and forest, cheap. Well worth a visit if you are in the vicinity and it has snowed.

Must agree with previous review. Red M is by far the best place I've been in. Incredible forests and very good snowmobile. We arrived just after a snowfall of about 30-40cm and were next on the mountain for 3 days. We went the first 2 days with two "Mountinhost". I strongly recommend this. As an ex-bummer, I had to drive my best ride to show that I was a straw warmer one of these 2 boys in 65 years as a customer all offpist in the red mountin outsiders. Best of all, their tips are free..so do not play tough yoke 2-3 yoke with these gentlemen so you'll get more out of the mountain

Steep, deep and cheap! It is "Red". Big Mountain, (North America's Lawn, said it ...) and cheap accommodation make this a perfect option for buget traveler who wants great skiing! An Australian Cushion newspaper codified "Red" to the world's best ski resort along with St. Anton and Val d'Isère ...
Are you a staircase? Go there !!!
