Red
Mountain Ski Area
|
A great ski hill only minutes
from Rossland and a good place for us to meet and determine the type of
terrain that would be most appropriate for our tour. The Red
Mountain snow report is a good indication of recent fresh snow for our
tour, but remember that we can ski fresh snow in the backcountry many days
after a snow fall.
