Review of Kimberley Alpine Resort

Kimberly Alpine Resort is one of the 4 RCR resorts...

Kimberly Alpine Resort is one of the 4 RCR resorts in western Canada. It's a good mountain, they have a rare Leitner high speed quad, and two other chairlifts on other parts of the hill. I wouldn't recommend going on weekends, as it can get crazy, and Kimberly has a bottleneck problem at the base of the Northstar Express. The trails off Northstar can kind of get confusing, and in case you don't want a long ski out, avoid the run "backtrack". The snow is often good quality, and they do have some amazing runs. The lodge is nothing special, just a hotel basement with a few tables, but ah well. I still will come back, as it is a sweet hill. Just avoid it on weekends would be my recommendation.
