THE BEAST

Featuring all the Canadian stops on your Mountain Collective Pass, The Beast is a once in a lifetime journey to the snowboarding and skiing Mecca for all riders who want to charge the deepest and steepest lines that Canada has to offer. Over the course of nineteen days, you'll travel east to west with us along the legendary Powder Highway to nine of the most epic ski resorts in North America, making the most of each run with guidance from true local legends.

​

The Beast starts in our home base of Banff to explore the SkiBig3 mountains of Sunshine Village & Lake Louise, where we share all our local secret spots and get you dialled in for a great trip. Banff has plenty of amazing bars & restaurants as well as some great snowboarding shops.

 

After you've clocked the SkiBig3 and enjoyed Banff's endless nightlife & good vibes, we'll hit the road to one of the gnarliest resorts on our trip, Kicking Horse Mountain Resort. There's good reason why it's the Canadian stop of the Freeride World Tour, with boundless ridges and bowls that keep the snow stashed deeper and longer, it's the champagne powder capital of Canada.

 

Just a short drive down the road then brings us to Panorama, nestled deep in Canada's oldest mountains. Here you'll be treated to huge vertical, a wicked variety of terrain and epic tree riding in the Extreme Dream Zone.

​

By now even the most hardcore of riders are pretty keen on a day off, so after a soak in some natural hot springs we head down the road to Rossland, voted Canadas No.1 Outdoor Town in preparation for two days of riding and cat skiing at RED Mountain Resort. RED is one of our favourite stops on the trip due to its amazing fall line tree riding, uncrowded slopes and big number of powder days.

​

Neighbouring Whitewater Ski Resort in the nearby laid back town of Nelson is next on our trip. With two days of riding here you'll barely even scratch the surface of the incredible amount of backcountry and sidecountry options available from the resort itself. Theres a reason it's voted the best resort for Powderhounds. 

​

Revelstoke Mountain Resort, known for the largest vertical and snowfall in North America is next in our sights. With so much terrain to explore, we'll spend three nights here lapping up the scenes and the amazing local hospitality.

 

Following another day to rest and recover, we'll land in Sun Peaks, our final resort stop and home to the 2nd largest ski area in Canada with 4,270 acres of skiable terrain. Here you'll get to experience the best of the Canadian ski-in/ski-out culture and apres after exploring endless wide open groomers, deep chutes and powdery bowls.

​

On the final day of the tour we'll get you to the awesome city of Vancouver, where you can choose to rest, play or explore before either ending your trip or heading just up the road to the famous Whistler Blackcomb Resort.
