The 2010-2011 ski season at Kimberley is shaping up to be spectacular! During the last few months, the finishing touches have been put on a number of projects at Kimberley Alpine Resort and everything will be ready to go by the time the first snowflake hits the slopes.

North America’s largest gladed ski terrain, including the infamous Black Forest has been enhanced, in the largest glading project in Canada. You will see two new glades, one between Windfall and Tramway and the other between Twist and Geneva. So look for more accessible, skiable terrain in the resort’s gladed areas. More terrain = more fun!

Trickle Creek Lodge has had a fresh new coat of paint on the exterior and every suite has a new flat-screen TV and new bed linens to tuck into after a day on the slopes.

The night skiing pass which made its sparkling debut last season has a new name -– the Nightrider Pass. This was so popular last year that it inspired an evening rail jam series that was a big attraction for youth. It looks like it just may be a permanent fixture, so all you skiers and snowboarders — get ready to enjoy unlimited fun on North America’s longest night skiing trail! This is a great way for families too to spend an evening together in a positive environment.
