Improvements for this Season
The Canadian Rockies Express, the longest new high-speed quad chairlift in the Canadian Rocky Mountains.
From the ski area base, the longest high-speed quad chair in the Canadian Rockies travels 2.3 km (1.5 miles), whisking skiers and boarders 596 vertical metres (1,955 ft) up to the mountain top in less than eight minutes. The lift was built using the most environmentally progressive construction techniques developed as part of an industry Best Practices Manual written collaboratively with Parks Canada.
With an increased carrying capacity of 4,800 people per hour from the base area, lift lines are certain to be eliminated as it will now take half the time to travel up from the base of the ski area to the top of the upper mountain. Runs for every calibre of skier or boarder, from beginner to expert, are available at the top with some stretching four kilometers long.
