Summary
Revelstoke has long been known as a heli-skiing base, but it became a ski resort for the rest of us only in 2007/8. A gondola and two fast chairs have transformed its little local ski hill into a serious resort with a vertical of over 1700m – the biggest in North America.
The resort claims over 3,000 acres of terrain – more than many Canadian and American rivals (notably Fernie and Jackson Hole) – but the quantity of defined trails is not huge. More than most places, this is a resort where you need to be happy in the trees to spend a long stay here. You might want to combine it with Kicking Horse and/or Lake Louise, both on the way from Calgary airport.
