This was concept was a world 1st last winter and super popular. You save C$49 per day on your cat skiing by allowing BRC to decide which 3 says out of a 6 day period that you will go out. Our aim of course is to make sure that you have the best experience - so we will send you out on the days that we think that you will enjoy the most - but that also works out the best for Big Red Cats' load factor.
