Whitewater vs Red Mountain

[JGP.]

Hey guys,

I'm going to Baldface for four days next december and I am looking to ski a couple extra days before at one of these two resorts. Red Mountain and Whitewater are both in the area, which do you prefer? I'm assuming they both have good snow, but which has more fun bc type runs with natural features like pillows and cliffs and stuff? Which would you recommend?

I would like to know as well. I'm going to take a trip down there probably sometime in late January

whitewater, cuz im moving to nelson in september and going to ski there, soooo, we can make some turns together yo!!!

red has way more inbounds terrain

but whitewater gets a bit more snow each storm and has better touring

red has more terrain, but whenever i ski red i feel sick. i feel like i'm lacking something. it's homeyness that i miss from whitewater, the familiar glades, the people who're there every day. i always get lost at red, i feel like i'm not "with" myself and my skiing when i'm there.

oh wow.

too much.

whitewater is also closer to baldface if that matters to you

 

[jca]

it astounds me how much though i put into that comment.

ski where you want, you'll have a blast at either mountain.
