Revelstoke Mountain Resort
Formerly the Powder Springs Ski Area, Revelstoke Mountain Resort on Mount MacKenzie in the Kootenays provides excellent skiing opportunities, offering world-class lift, snowcat, and helicopter skiing and snowboarding.

Every year, more than 8,000 helicopter and snowcat skiers from around the world flock to Revelstoke, British Columbia, attracted by its perfect powder and varied alpine terrain. Upon completion of Revelstoke Mountain Resort, over 20 lifts and more than 100 ski and snowboard runs will be created, transforming the area into a world-class resort.

The $1-billion, four-season resort will be completed over 15 years and will include over 5,000 new housing units (1,500 resort condominiums, 2,000 hotel suites, 850 townhomes and 550 single-family lots), as well as more than 500,000 square feet of commercial and retail space, plus a signature golf course.

Revelstoke Mountain offers 5,620 vertical feet, two high-speed quad lifts, an eight-passenger gondola, a renovated and expanded day lodge with restaurant, deck, retail, and rentals, and 52 gladed and groomed trails, open bowls, and steep chutes. The availability of both helicopter skiing and cat skiing operations makes the resort a one-stop destination for lift, snowcat, and helicopter skiing.

Revelstoke is located in the heart of the world’s best heli-skiing. Two impressive mountain ranges, the Selkirks and the Monashees, provide unmatched terrain. Unique snow conditions and mild climate provide great powder from December through to April. Revelstoke boasts over 500,000 acres of terrain with over 200 established runs.

Cat Skiing in Revelstoke offers access to untracked terrain and world-renowned powder skiing in the legendary Selkirks. Snowcats take skiers and boarders to all levels of terrain, from wide-open bowls, to steep chutes and cornices.

Revelstoke Mountain Resort is located on Mount MacKenzie, between the spectacular Selkirk and Monashee Mountains, 3.5 miles (6 km) southeast of downtown Revelstoke.
