the timber-frame Kicking Horse Pedestrian Bridge
With a vertical rise of 1,260 meters (4,130 feet), 45 percent of terrain designated for ex-
perts, lots of dry powder snow, and minimal crowds, Kicking Horse has developed a big
reputation since opening for the 2000-2001 winter season. In addition to the 3.5-kilometer-
long (2.2-mile-long) gondola, four other lifts transport skiers and boarders to hidden bowls
and to a high point of 2,450 meters (8,040 feet), giving the resort North America's second-
highest vertical rise (1,260 meters/4,135 feet). Lifts operate mid-December-early April and
tickets are adult $82, senior $68, child $42. Facilities in the base lodge include rentals, a
cafeteria, and a ski school, while the summit restaurant is also open daily for lunch and Fri-
day and Saturday for dinner.
