Red Mountain starts work on terrain expansion

Red Mountain Resort, in eastern BC, has started its most significant expansion to date: neighbouring Grey Mountain. The two-year expansion adds almost 400 hectares — and a whole new mountain — to the current 680 hectares of the resort. The $50 million project includes slope-side accommodations. Red has been known for world-class tree skiing, steep runs and 892 metres of vertical. Grey Mountain will open up intermediate runs, groomed cruising runs, tree glades and alpine chutes. The mountain is volcano-shaped, allowing for 360-degree skiing around the peak from a single lift. (http://www.redresort.com)
