Big Red Cats
Big Red Cats is based out of Rossland, BC.
Cat skiing at Big Red Cats is all about the powder! With 19,300 acres and 8 mountains offering some of the best snow and best tree skiing and glades in the world, you can choose from separate trips for any higher ability level, including Expert, Advanced, and Intermediate skiers and riders (even “Uber Expert” if you dare!) – to get the level of adventure that you’re looking for near Red Mountain Resort, British Columbia. Our qualified guides will take you through varied terrain for a backcountry experience you won’t forget.
Conveniently located near RED Mountain Resort, only 3.5 hours South of Big White, so that you can combine your trip with a visit to this resort as well.
Safety is our main concern (our guides have ACMG, CSGA, and Canadian Avalanche Association qualifications), but the fun is what it’s all about. We love exploring the backcountry, and nearly every day someone tells us that it was the best day of skiing in their life.
