Red Mountain Voted Editor’s Choice “Best Authentic and Funky Resort Experience”
ROSSLAND, British Columbia-(Business Wire)-January 6, 2009 - SBC’s 2008-09 Ski and Snowboard Resort Guide has voted Red Mountain Resort “Best Authentic and Funky Resort Experience”. Awarded as “Editor’s Choice”, the magazine wrote “A 360-degree fall line, prodigious amounts of snow and terrain loaded with steeps, trees and eerie abandoned mine shafts, makes the skiing and snowboarding go off. Add in a retro vibe with colorful turn-of-the-century charm, and a nearby ski town that’s classic in every sense, and you see why this place is on so many people’s wishlists.”
Demand for uncrowded and unpretentious holiday destinations like Red and Rossland are trending upwards as more Gen Xers are looking to get away from the madness of urban living. In spite of very uncertain economic times, Red has been bucking the trend in ski accommodation bookings with double digit increases over last year.
Erik Kalacis, General Manager of Red states, “Our numbers confirm that skiing and riding Red’s incredible snow and terrain are addictive. Even during our current economic slump, ski trips and vacations are ‘must haves’ for guests that we attract here at Red. People need their powder ‘fix’, and can you think of a better place to get it? Red is renowned for delivering passionate ski and snowboard aficionados what they need…abundant snow, secret stashes of champagne powder, consistent fall-line and countless lines…not big lift lines. Combine all this with our luxury slope-side lodging, friendly staff and locals, and the funky ski town of Rossland, Red presents a superb offering for skiers and riders of all abilities.”
With the best Canadian dollar exchange rate seen in years, Red is the ideal destination for budget-conscious U.S. consumers. Red Mountain Resort has also partnered with Sotheby’s International Realty Canada to develop a Master Plan with a vision for perfection in the most unique mountain setting (NYSE: BID).
