“People gotta come to Kicking Horse to believe it,” explains Toby Barrett, guest experiences manager at KHMR. “It’s really one of the most unique mountain playgrounds that anyone has ever built lifts too.”
“Light is brighter, days are longer and we are celebrating a great season. This one has been monumental and if it’s any indication of what is happening right now, conditions are shaping up to be all time right until the end,” says Barrett.
Hike T1, aka Terminator Ridge, to score a run called “Truth” that you can get a feel for in this video story below.
With almost 30 years’ experience on a snowboard, and scoring about 100 days a year, there are not many runs that put my heart in my throat like this run “Truth” does. A gnarly entrance, with an aggressive vertical drop and into the POW.
It’s about a 30-min hike up the Terminator Ridge, and from the top you have options: run the front side of the ridge, for this run Truth, or drop into the backside of the ridge into Super Bowl.

Today we say 'see you later' to a number of our favourite BC-based resorts as April 12 is their final day of operations for the season. Instead of being sad because it's over, we can look back on the incredible seasons that were had, the memories that were made, and all the fresh lines that were shred!
Thank you Cypress, Fernie, Grouse, KHMR, Pano, Revy, Seymour, and Washington for a truly wonderful winter! Until next year...

From meeting the love of your life to finding secret powder stashes, chairlift convos can change your day or change your world!
We asked if you chat on the lift, and your answers might restore your faith in humanity 👇
❤️ “Always chat on the chair,” advises Nathan Davis. “I met my wife on the Comet chair.”
🙌 “Talk to your fellow humans, don’t be a robot. The reason we have so much division is definitely linked to our detachment from conversations with others, too much screen time and not enough meaningful interaction with each other.” - @stokethefiresmallbatch
🐋 “Last week I met a very articulate five-year-old who loved whales and told me all about the whales near her home in Bermuda. Made my day!” - Susie Youle
