Green, Blue & Black: Revelstoke Top Tips

Start your day at the Turtle Creek Beginner Area or The Little Bit.
The lower runs from Revelation Lodge are great for skills progression. The easiest runs down are Tickle Trunk and the Last Spike. The next challenge lies at the top of the Revelation Gondola towards Last Spike. Once you’ve mastered that, take the Stoke Chair and try the green runs from the top!

The top pitches of Snow Rodeo, Feller Buncher, and Wooley Bully are wide and include some fun rollers.
You can always cut back to the Last Spike – a green run which weaves its way down the entire mountain. Another excellent choice for intermediate skiers is the Ripper Chair, which features gentle grades and gladed tree skiing.

On a powder day, head to North Bowl and Greely Bowl as soon as the areas open.
Hike up to the sub peak, enjoy the views, and take Powder Assault down into North Bowl; take a swift right and pop out into Greely Bowl. Continue through Beauty Glades, and end at the Ripper Chair for some respite. In the afternoon, get in some hot laps in the 14-acre terrain park which is home to over 20 jib features under the Stoke Chair.
