Kicking Horse

Intermediate to the most challenging terrain

Kicking Horse is for people who want to go skiing with its long 4000 ft top to bottom.

The Gondola takes you right to the top so no freezing on chair lifts. Every run ends up back at the gondola.

Take your pick of easy to the most advanced terrain and best of all no crowds.This is a skiers mountain and boarders. A hard corp but friendly local crew. Does not suit the glam set.

Pre heliskiing warm up

Stayed for 4 nights in preparation for Adamants CMH.

Fantastic skiing & guiding. Great terrain and deserted. Poor snow conditions but still found great skiing.

Loved the Copper Horse and owners Paul & Sacy delightful.

Recommend.

Truly a skiers mountain!

There was no fresh powder (I''d missed out by 1 week) when I was there in late January but plenty of snow. I''m a deep snow skier who had to ski bumps all week but I have to admit they were great moguls - made by good skiers so you can ski the rivers with big turns or take the fall line. Good snow grooming maintained the piste for my better half who doesn’t ski bumps – long steep piste runs provided plenty of challenge for intermediate/advanced skiers.

Its a huge resort – my hot tip is to latch onto some locals and follow them all over the mountain (thanks John & Dennis) – I did and found brilliant slopes in out of the way places and long, long, long runs – perfect warm up before a week of heliskiing.

Big mountain with a warm small village atmosphere. It is truly a skiers mountain  - the local beer is great and the restaurants offer good variety but because it’s a small resort the choice is limited unless you go down the valley – the Bar at Glacier Mountain lodge had great pub food and was our favourite night spot and you couldn’t beat the Japanese Restaurant/café for lunch.
