Marmot Basin
Marmot Basin is set in spectacular Jasper National Park. With seven lifts, it delivers generous servings of light, fluffy, Canadian Rockies champagne powder. Located about 350 kilometres west of Edmonton, Jasper is one of Canada's signature ski towns. Known for its natural rough-cut beauty, this is a real mountain town that loves winter. From one end of the park to the other, you'll also find miles of ice canyons, and glaciers. Or, stargaze into an ocean of stars in one of the world's largest dark sky preserves.

Stats
Marmot is Canada's highest base elevation and that means there is ample snow even on the lower slopes. Up top there are bowls packed with powder, glades to weave through and lots of wide open groomers. Even on a busy day, you have loads of space.
Seven lifts including four high speed quads.
