Panorama Resort to Offer Canada’s Cheapest Cat-Skiing

It might not be the biggest snowcat, but it sure does look snazzy. Panorama photo.

Panorama Mountain Resort, located in southeastern British Columbia, nearly has more double-black trails than greens, blues, and blacks put together. As such, it should come as no surprise that they are also planning on operating an inbounds snowcat called "Monster X" to access far-flung, though fully avalanche-controlled zones in Taynton Bowl, located in the northern, AKA upper-left portion of the mountain. The cat will run on weekends and on other special days throughout the season, according to the resort.

Panorama has some of the finest terrain in the Canadian Rockies. Panorama map.

While not quite the pure backcountry experience offered by most cat-skiing operations, Monster X is hard to beat on price. While its rates are in addition to a lift ticket, the price of an unlimited cat-skiing season pass combined with the price of a normal Panorama season pass is still comparable to a single day at most other cat-skiing ops.

Pretty hard to beat in the world of cat-skiing. Panorama graphic.
