Red Mountain Resort - British Columbia
Sunday, 08 April 2007
Red Mountain actually spans two mountains. The original Red (after which the resort is named) is now dwarfed by Granite mountain, rising to 2040 metres (6699 feet), above Red's 1590 metre (5208 foot) peak.

Red features 400 acres of groomed trails and a further 800 acres of tree skiing, with slopes descending in all directions from Granite Mountain. The resort is located in a snow belt and has a reputation for abundant falls of light, fluffy powder. It also has a reputation for tough skiing with three triple-black diamonds and more than 11 double-black diamond runs. There are still a wide choice of blues and greens however.

The nearby town of Rossland (5 minutes away) has most facilities and accommodations.
