MEADOW LODGE

Renowned for the pillow lines right below it, Meadow Lodge also serves as the gateway to some of the steepest and longest descents in the Esplanades. With a variety of long north- and south-facing runs, there are great options for all snow conditions. A short hike up to Paradise Ridge provides access to some of the Esplanades’ finest west-facing terrain. From this vantage point, you’ll also take in breathtaking views of Mt. Sir Sandford—soaring to 11,545 feet (3,519 m), it's the tallest peak in the entire Selkirk Range.
