WINTER IS COMING... - TENTATIVE OPENING DATES AND CONDITIONS LOCAL SKI RESORTS

DECEMBER 5, 2020 • WHAT'S NEW


In just about 1 week nearby Ski Resorts Whitewater and Red Mountain are planning to open their slopes, so we decided it is time to start the “We ♥ Snow Report Winter 2020/21” again!

We asked Bex Dawkes, last years’ Marketing Coordinator at Whitewater Ski Resort about why it could be the best winter ever and La Niña.



While for now we all dream of future plans in our own personal snow globe, we will keep you informed on any changes as soon as we learn them here, but please keep yourselves updated as well with all the changes and the applicable
COVID-19 SAFETY AND PROTOCOLS:

Whitewater Ski Resort

Total Snow 160 cm / 63' +  Settled Snowpack 106 cm / 42'
With 17 cm of fresh snow this week.

Tentative Opening Date to the general public: December 18th
Whitewater is scheduled to open on Friday, December 11th for daily operations to Season Passholders only and tentatively planning to open the Glory Chair one week later on Friday, December 18th. All of this is conditions permitting.

Whitewater, the go-to-resort for most of our guests, is up the road from our Lodge, a short 20 min. drive from door to lift. Over 623 metres/2044 ft of steeps, deeps, chutes, bowls, and glades are all there, beneath the ski resort's majestic Ymir Peak. Together with its impressive snowpack - annual snowfall of 12 meters/40 ft -, boundless backcountry terrain and its laid-back familial atmosphere, some do not want to ski anywhere else.

Tentative Opening Date: December 12th

Guests who stay with us longer than a few nights like to ski at least a day at Red Mountain as well. RED is a bit further out but very accessible at an hours drive (75km), located just outside the charming town of Rossland. With more than 3,850 skiable acres, 119 runs, 890 meters/2919 ft of vertical terrain serviced by 8 total lifts, and an annual snowfall peaks out on average at 7+ meters/25 ft, all in all reason to enjoy a day at this impressive resort as well.
