New for the 2009/10 Season!
The lodge is called the “Big Red Lodge” and is ready for the 2009/10 winter season. Kieren Gaul, president of Big Red Cats said “the lodge will cater for groups of 12 people (1 whole snowcat!) in the highest quality, comfort, and style. It is perfect for our guests as it allows the whole group to stay under one roof and all eat and socialize around one table. This is some of the finest ski lodging anywhere”.
The luxury ski lodge includes 6 bedrooms,2 living rooms, 3 full washrooms, and all the amenities, including.
- Private hot tub
- BBQ
- Wireless Internet
- TV complete with a DVD player
- Real Wood Stove
- A Gas fireplace in the second loungeroom
- Central Heating.
The cathedral ceilings in the great room allow for a stunning view of Red Mountain through the timber-framed windows. The spacious kitchen with granite counters and stainless appliances make it a complete luxury get-away!
Gaul said “For groups staying in the Big Red Lodge the guide will meet their group in the lodge on your 1st day of cat skiing. Your guide will present a briefing on safety, show you how to use avalanche transceivers and then take you outside the lodge to practice group rescue and transceiver use. Your guide will then transport your group right from the Big Red Lodge directly to the waiting snowcats. From the time that you leave the lodge to thetime you start you 1st run is as little as 30 minutes."
Now for the real luxury...
An optional private chef is available to cater your stay. For only and additional C$25 per person plus ingredients per day, you will get après-ski prepared snacks, a 3 course dinner, and breakfast supplies. No shopping or dishes to do! A massage therapist is also available at the Big Red Lodge if booked in advance. The lodge is only 150 metres from the lifts at Red Mountain Resort for those who would like to combine resort skiing with their cat skiing vacation.

The price will be C$700 per night - with a group of 12 people that is just C$58 per person night. Cheaper that a hotel. There is also a C$200 cleaning fee at the end of your stay. A 4 night 3 day group cat skiing package at the Big Red Lodge is an unbeatable C$1300 per person before tax.
