Kicking Horse Mountain Resort
Description:
Kicking Horse Mountain Resort is the first four season mountain resort to open in the Canadian Rockies in 25 years. There's a great deal of Canadian history behind Kicking Horse Mountain Resort. It is named after the renowned river and the famous high-alpine pass that were instrumental in opening the Canadian West to the rest of the world. The Kicking Horse name reflects a sense of adventure, discovery and exploration.
Today, Kicking Horse Mountain Resort calls itself the "Champagne Powder Capital of Canada."(TM) On average Kicking Horse receives more than 7 meters (23 feet) of some of the lightest, driest and deepest powder snow on the planet. The majestic mountains surrounding us, and our phenomenal snow pack, are the reasons why our area has such historic mountain culture. It’s also why we are surrounded by the highest concentration of beautiful back-country lodges, off piste skiing, and mechanized ski operations (both cat and heli) in all of Canada.
The owners of Kicking Horse Mountain Resort wanted to pick a name that would convey the sense of freedom, adrenaline and independence that goes hand-in-hand with adventure-recreation.'The unique name, combined with the bold Kicking Horse symbol, is meant to inspire the imagination and carry on the legacy of adventure in the Canadian Rockies.
