Castle provides an epiphany moment

CASTLE MOUNTAIN, AB — Arriving at Castle Mountain at 9:30 p.m. from the Calgary Airport, I wasn’t able to preview the mountain, so, I went looking for some clues to get an idea of what I was in for.

CASTLE MOUNTAIN, AB — It’s printed right on the lift tickets “Powder to Share” and the resort lives up to its boast. Tucked in the south west corner of Alberta, along the North American Continental Divide, lays one of North America’s snow-filled hidden gems – Castle Mountain Resort.

Becoming king of the castle

CASTLE MOUNTAIN, AB — Interested in a secret? There is this little known place with terrain so stellar and snow so thick, that it rounds up a few firsts for ski resorts here in Canada.
