THE GOLDEN CITY
WELCOME TO the 2011 Rossland Vacation Guide! We hope it will help you make the most of your Rossland experience. Rossland’s confluence of cul-ture, adventure and lifestyle
make it a truly special place to visit and an idyllic place to reside.
For those who are here to take advantage of our four seasons of unbridled play, the Rossland Range will never disappoint. And our charming downtown core will delight with heritage buildings, boutique shops, spas and restaurants. For a more cultured experience, there is plenty of art and live music to fill your soul.
For history buffs, Rossland boasts a rich mining history full of colourful characters and tales of boom and bust. Incorporated in 1897, Canada’s Alpine City is nestled in a crater of an ancient volcano at an elevation of 1023m (3410 ft). The town came into existence when the historical Dewdney Trail was built next to what is now Rossland, bringing prospec-tors in search of gold.
Rossland’s vivid past is a direct reflection of the cast of char-acters who came to mine its resources. By 1897, the popula-
tion was a bustling 7,000, with 42 saloons, four banks and 17 law firms. There were also four newspapers and a
daily train from Spokane, Washington. By 1929, the combined output of the main
mines in Rossland totalled almost $165 million, earning Rossland the name, the “Golden City.”
Enthusiasm for the sport of skiing began with a young Norwegian named Olaus Jeldness who moved to town in 1896. Within two years he had organized a ski club and Rossland was
ready to hold Canada’s first national ski champi-onships, an event Olaus would dominate for years
— his jumping skill second to none. Old stories are told of Jeldness jumping a train for an audience in
front of the station. Since those early days, Red Mountain has been known as a premier ski destination.
Visit the Rossland Museum for the complete story on the area, or pick up a copy of the Historical Heritage Walking Tour brochure, available at the Rossland Chamber of Commerce and the Museum.

“UNREAL, DUDE!” I screamed to my ski buddy at the top of my lungs, doing my best not to inhale champagne-light Kootenay powder. I had an epiphany that day in 1998 on
Mt. Roberts, during our annual road trip.Words cannot describe the feeling I had,
after four days of non-stop storm snow, piling up knee-high, chest-deep, face-shot. Down-right gasping for air — well, yes, it was as they say around these parts — “snorkel” deep, or is that “stupid” deep!
On that fateful day, I fell immediately in love with Red Mountain, its amazing back-country, and of course Rossland and its beau-tiful people. Red is such a kick-ass ski resort as it is great for any skiing ability, but let me indulge you in a few of my favourite features.
Hitting your face, over your head, compara-ble to flying through clouds — it can be down-right spiritual. This feeling is what I yearn for and Red Mountain delivers, time and time again. Explore some of my favourite runs at Red, like Powder Fields, War Eagle, the Slides, Ruby Tuesday and my new favourite, Cap-
tain Jack’s Trees!
Some of the terrain is, simply put, the most challenging anywhere. Steep chutes, vertical faces, perfectly spaced trees, cliffs, rollovers, tree hits, road gaps, frozen ice falls, snow
ghosts — you name it, Red has it all. For those interested in a bit less intense ride, Red offers
a great variety of beginner and intermediate terrain that can be accessed from any of the four lifts situated on the
hill — Red chair, Motherlode chair, Silverlode chair and Paradise chair.
For first-timers and tots, Red also offers a Magic Carpet and a T-Bar that whisks you up very gentle terrain for a great learning experience. Why not sign up for a ski or snowboard lesson at Red while you’re at it? You’ll get a new Kootenay outlook on life.
For backcountry enthusiasts, Mt. Roberts is one of four easily accessed backcountry peaks that Red Mountain has to offer. Record Peak, Mt. Grey and Mt. Kirkup complete the line-up as a backcountry rider’s paradise.

All who head out beyond boundaries must be trained in avalanche safety and first aid, or should hire a certified guide who will ensure a safe, posi-tive outdoor experience. Red Mountain offers avalanche safety courses and guides to all our visitors.
Before you go out, defi-nitely check avalanche and snow pack conditions at www.avalanche.ca. For those who would like to read about some of the backcountry options around the Rossland Range, pick up the West Kootenay Backcountry Guide by Brad Steele, available in most out-door equipment stores.
Cat skiing and cat board-ing with Big Red Cats is an excellent way to satisfy your need for fresh powder. With a maximum of 36 skiers a day, qualified guides showing you all the best untracked gladed trees and bowls — all yours for the taking!
New this year, Red Moun-tain is offering an amazing backcountry hut experience offering day tours and over-night tours under the stars.
The folks that make up this colourful mountain community are unlike anywhere in the world. As you make your way up the chairlift, please don’t be alarmed if you suddenly get assaulted by kindness from complete strangers who will proudly show off their mountain and their favourite powder stashes... well, maybe not all their secrets, but enough to make you feel like a Red Mountain lifer.

WITH FOUR superb cross-country trail networks less than an hour’s drive apart, Rossland is a true cross-country ski destination! And the locals agree:
between the Black Jack Ski Club, the Castlegar Nordic Ski Club, the Beaver Valley Ski Club, and the Nelson Nordic
Ski Club, there are over 2,000 club members. With a regional population of only about 30,000, that’s some cross-country skiing enthusiasm!
Thanks to abundant snowfall and high elevations, the season starts early and ends late. Dedicated Nordic stores with full-service sales and rentals will get you equipped and ready to hit the trails. And if needed, local instructors are happy to teach you the ropes.
On the trails you’ll find beautiful alpine views, open meadows, enchanting forests, cozy cabins, a Nordic terrain park for kids, a biathlon range, lit night skiing... and fun.
Cross-country skiing is consistently ranked as the world’s best fitness activity, due to its total-body yet low-impact nature. And it’s a great way to get outdoors in the winter and get fresh air. It’s also one of the most inexpensive sports out there: a day pass is anywhere from $5 to $10. Skiing is believing! — Wannes Luppens

Variety is the spice of life, and when it comes to mountain bik-ing in the Rossland area, it’s downright zesty. Rossland has an extensive trail network that spans some 170 kilometres and offers an array of enticing options. Adrenaline Adventures offers shuttle rides to many trails including the popular Seven Summit Trail — call 250-362-5005 for more information and
details. Before you go, pick up a Kootenay Columbia Trail Society (www.kcts.ca) trail map at Revolution Cycles or the Chamber of Commerce office and don’t forget to ask about new trail development. Ready to roll? Here are my quick picks to keep your Rossland cycling adventure sizzling:
WHOLE ENCHILADA7 Summits: Let me give you seven words why this 30-km “IMBA Epic”
trail is world-renowned: challenging, technical, exhausting, exhilarat-ing and jaw-dropping beautiful. It is all that. But don’t forget — this is a sustained, remote alpine trail for advanced riders, so be prepared with the proper clothes, food, water and bike.
MILDER FARE For those new to mountain biking or just looking to cruise, a first pick
would be Centennial (2.7 km), offering a gentle, wide trail from the City of Rossland to the base of Red Mountain Resort. Connecting to the Centennial trail, Moe’s offers a beginner to intermediate fray into flowing single-track. Other milder options include the Railgrade and slightly more challenging Kootenay Columbia.

TWO CHILIES, PLEASEThere is an abundance of quality intermediate trails in
Rossland. To spice it up, my nearby favourites include Milky Way, Green Door and Cemetery. Linked by Roger’s and starting near the old Mining School location, these trails can be ridden in any combination (up and down) for an afternoon feast.
For some fresh flow, a new network is being developed at the far end of the Black Jack Cross Country Ski Area off Highway 3B. Don’t miss the new Larch Ridge trail and the descents on BS and Metacola. It can be done as a loop if you ride up the forestry road after Crusty Old Guys to the highway.
FIRE IN THE HOLE!If you’re a seasoned rider looking for a challenge, Ross-
land won’t disappoint. There’s too much goodness to list, but here are a few of my favourites:
For a challenging all-mountain rip, try climbing the new Red Top up Red Mountain and, if you’re comfortable on the steeps, hit the refurbished Dreadhead course to the bottom. Another great pedal is up Drakes to Tamarack to the classic Whiskey downhill.
For the downhill set, the Flume is the classic with technical, steep rocks, skinnies, drops and flow. Cherry Poppins and Whis-key start nearby. On the other side of town, Spring Clean-ing is an early/late season rip. As always, ask around and you’ll learn of some other tasty morsels. Happy trails!

LONG known for its world-class winter recreation, Rossland is quickly becoming a year-round destination.
There is a plethora of fantastic golfing opportunities in and
around Rossland. Two minutes from town, Red-
stone Golf Resort features the only Les Furber “Signature” course in Canada, which boasts a front nine of traditional links leading into a picturesque back nine.
Furber’s work at Redstone com-bines the strategic and the heroic for a golf course that will seriously test the better player from the back tees while remaining playable from the forward tees.
The course includes a driving range, the celebrated clubhouse restaurant and a fully equipped pro shop.
A short drive from Rossland, golf-ers will find the Rossland-Trail Country Club on the banks of the Columbia River. Or enjoy the serenity of the greens of the Christina Lake Golf Course, 45 minutes away.
For an alternative to golf, try frisbee golf, or “Frolf.” The skillfully cut, 18-hole disc golf course located at the Black Jack
Cross Country Ski Club has a superb view of Red Mountain and the Rossland Range.
For those really hot days, Nancy Greene Provincial Park has the perfect swimming hole and camping spot for the entire fam-ily. Further along, Christina Lake offers the fun of sandy beaches, an 18-hole golf course, and a full service community.
Whether you prefer fly fishing, casting, trolling or ice fishing, the South Koote-nays are second to none. It seems wher-ever you cast a line, the fish are biting. A short 20-minute drive from Rossland, the mighty Columbia River offers some of the best fishing in the world.
Or you might want to try horseback rid-ing! Offering one-hour to full-day guided horseback trips, plus overnight excur-sions, Record Ridge Riding can accommo-date both experienced and inexperienced riders.
There is so much to do and so much to see around Rossland in the summer, that if you manage to leave you’ll be sure to come back for more.

OUR unique mountain community provides inspiration for many local and visiting artists. Many diverse mediums are represented in this unique town, from potters and painters to craftspeople, filmmakers and musicians.
Rossland is abundant with local talent. The community hosts
a number of events and venues which feature local artists’ work. The Rossland Council for Arts and Cul-ture is involved in visual arts initiatives, music and film events including a fall/winter concert series.
The annual Rossland Mountain Film Festival, held in November, includes multi-media presentations, music and art displays.
The Rossland Light Opera Players, British
Columbia’s oldest amateur musical theatre troupe, stages a different musical each winter. The group’s wardrobe and prop collec-tion is in itself a glimpse into the history of Ross-land’s dramatic past.
Located on Columbia Avenue in the heart of town in the historical Bank of Montreal build-ing, the Rouge Gallery gives local artists a place to showcase their excep-tional talents.
Every July and August for the past 25 years, the Gold Fever Follies put on a different show at the Rossland Miners Hall, each loosely based on the historic events and people of early gold rush days. The show delights with vivacious music, comedy, and historical bur-lesque. It is a nostalgic experience not to be missed!
