"Date Opened: 1947 Multi-Destination Passes: Ikon Pass Number of Trails: 111 Skiable Acres: 3,850 (11th biggest in North America) Vertical Drop: 2,919′ Base Elevation: 3,887′ Summit Elevation: 6,807′ Average Annual Snowfall: 300″ Number of Lifts: 8 Night Skiing: Yes (Thursday - Saturday, core winter weekends only) Other Activities: Cross Country Skiing Mountain Biking (summer) We all know the common complaints about skiing nowadays: "it's too expensive," "it's too busy," "there's no snow," etc."
"And all of this is true to some degree in some places, at some times. Skiers and riders internally have set the bar for their ski experience unrealistically high. They want the best resorts in North America to still charge affordable lift ticket prices and have no lift lines, while simultaneously having state-of-the-art infrastructure and good weather, and if not good weather, great snowmaking to have their backs covered."
Many skiers set unrealistically high expectations for ski resorts, demanding low prices, no lift lines, top infrastructure, and perfect weather simultaneously. RED Mountain presents a different value proposition by emphasizing extensive, authentic terrain and a large vertical drop rather than full commercial amenities. RED Mountain features 3,850 skiable acres, 111 trails, a 2,919-foot vertical, approximately 300 inches of annual snowfall, eight lifts, and selective night skiing. The resort participates in multi-destination passes and offers cross-country skiing and summer mountain biking. A realistic prioritization of what matters most to skiers can lead to a more satisfying experience.
