Red Mountain Resort in British Columbia, Canada, is investing close to $1 million on mountain projects designed to make the resorts lifts and pistes more reliable. A comprehensive lift-service audit is a major part of this investment which includes upgrades to chairlift components on Red’s Motherlode, Paradise and Red chairlifts.

Red’s Maintenance Manager Steve Bourcier and his team are hard at work making sure that the preventative maintenance program is completed well before the snow flies.

This summer Red is spending a lot of time and money on upgrades to its existing lift infrastructure. The main focus of these upgrades is on the motor controls and communications circuit systems. Modernization of these controls will lead to maximum reliability and ultimately ensuring a superior experience for our guests,”

he said.

In addition to lift maintenance, Red’s next major investment is on an extensive summer brushing and pruning program designed to clean up overgrown areas and open up terrain. Red is renowned for some of the world’s best tree skiing and this work is vital to preserving an asset so dear to many skiers and riders.

Crews have been on the mountain since April executing a large pruning project that was started over snow. One of the areas enhanced include Pale Face Chutes where extensive pole-saw work was initiated for the first time.
