RED Mountain Finally Opening For 23/24 Winter Season

The avid skiers and snowboarders have been eagerly awaiting the opening of RED Mountain Resort in British Columbia, Canada. This year, however, the resort's season launch came with its own set of challenges due to below-average snowfall in the region. But, determined to offer a thrilling experience, the resort's Operations and Patrol teams have been working tirelessly to ensure a memorable start to the season.On Thursday, December 28th, 2023, the resort will come to life as the Magic Carpet Carpet, Silverlode, Motherlode, and Paradise Chairs start spinning. While this is undoubtedly exciting news for winter sports enthusiasts, it's essential to remember that the mountain's snow conditions are early-season conditions. This means that guests are required to stick to designated and groomed runs, as natural hazards—both marked and unmarked—still pose a potential risk.
