Red Mountain Resort is one of the oldest and most famous ski resorts in Canada, located 5 minutes out of the town of Rossland. It was the site of the first World Cup race in Canada and the location of the Canadian Downhill Championships. Olympic gold medalists Kerrin Lee-Gartner and Nancy Greene are among the famous ski racers at Red Mountain Resort. You will find a variety of terrain and light, dry snow. They have five chair lifts and a T-bar. The ski area of Red Mountain Resort is made up of two mountains; Red and Granite, which provide 1,685 skiable acres amidst the 4,200 acres at Red Mountain Resort. Both mountains are skiable down all sides giving much more variety than the number of lifts would suggest. Ranked 13th in North America by Skiing Magazine, Red Mountain Resort is Canada's hidden gem. Off the slopes, there are new condos at the base of Red Mountain. Three lodges with 60 rooms are on-site with an additional 12 lodges, with 200 rooms, within eight miles.

Visitor Reviews of Red Mountain Resort
Born and raised @ Red Mtn from Canada writes:
Best ski hill around for a reason. No we aren't Whistler and don't want to be. Ya, our chairs aren't the fastest, might not have the nightlife etc, but, I guarantee, strap the skis on and we will show you how it's supposed to be done and if you are still going to whine strap on a pair and go to a different mtn. Leave the freshies for the locals and the tourists who appreciate it!
