Forecast today: Rain/Snow shower
Plentiful snowfall makes this one of the most reliable places to score powder and with so much terrain served by a single lift (there is also the Stairway to Heaven chairlift that serves part of the upper mountain) fresh tracks last longer here than at many other major resorts. The steep terrain is so good that the Freeride World Tour stop off here every winter.
Kicking Horseโs small size means that it is an ideal stopover point if youโre heading on a multi-resort trip through Canada. Banff is not too far away to the east and Revelstoke is only two hours to the west.
On the hill there are a few accommodation options โ good for staying for a few days, but youโll quickly find the evenings are very quiet and there is nothing to really do off the slopes. This is why we would recommend stopping here for a few days on your way through Canada, or staying down in the town of Golden โ there is a lot more going on here after skiing.
Although on-mountain dining options are limited, Kicking Horse is home to one of the finest alpine restaurants in Canada โ the Eagleโs Eye. Not only is the scenery epic, but the food is excellent.

A generally mild weekend and new week for resorts west of the Great Plans is punctuated by a burst of cold weather and snowfall to open the weekend, moving east over the course of the forecast period. Sun will dominate as barometric pressure rises over the course of the new week.
Resorts over the St Lawrence are now closed.
Thus concludes our snow overviews for the 2024/25 season; thank you to everyone who has tuned in, and we look forward to seeing you again next season!
