OverviewThe West Kootenay Classic is a nine day tour that visits Revelstoke Mountain Resort, Whitewater in Nelson, and Red Mountain in Rossland.

Revelstoke’s resort boasts the largest vertical of any ski area in North America. Two years ago the resort expanded with a quad chairlift in North Bowl, and an extension to the gondola down to the new base area where heliskiing and catskiing are also offered.

Whitewater is located in the shadow of Mt. Ymir and is famous for deep, dry powder and perfectly gladed tree runs. Two summers ago saw the installation of the Glory Ridge Chair and expanded terrain over what used to be the ‘back side’. The mid-week crowds are small, and the locals are friendly and welcoming.

The locals in Rossland had been sitting on a gold mine for decades, until the last few years when Red Mountain’s village development got underway. There’s been a lot of clean up of overgrown gladed terrain, opening up some of the best fall-line tree skiing found anywhere. Red has always been well known as a leg burning paradise, with lots of hidden powder stashes.
