History
RED Mountain Resort near Rossland in southeastern British Columbia spans Granite, Grey, Kirkup, and Red Mountains in the Monashee range near the United States border. Beside a former gold-mining town, it became known for light, dry powder and heavy annual snowfall. Its roots reach back to the Red Mountain Ski Club, founded in the first decade of the 1900s, making it one of North America’s oldest ski hills and a lasting force in the area’s sporting culture. The resort also holds a notable place in Canadian competitive skiing history, hosting Canada’s first FIS Alpine World Cup races in 1968 and later expanding with Grey Mountain in 2013.
