This is the most significant current undertaking of any of the Canadian National Park ski areas and will greatly enhance the experience at one of Canada's most spectacular alpine skiing and snowboarding destinations. Eagle Ridge provides skiing and snowboarding on two huge mountain faces known as Eagle East and Chalet Slope. These two mountain faces will open 20 new runs at Marmot Basin. These new runs on Eagle Ridge include expert, advanced and intermediate terrain as well as one long novice run. Chalet Slope has several steep sections with incredible powder skiing through tree glades.
Marmot Basin is already well known as a ski area with lots of room to move and minimal lift lines.
With the new quad chair the uphill carrying capacity will increase to approximately 12,000 people per hour. From the top terminal of the new lift, the view of the Athabasca Valley and the surrounding mountain peaks is one of the most spectacular and dramatic panoramas in the Canadian Rockies.
