The development is modeled after resorts like France's Les Trois Vallees, Italy's Via Lattea, and Austria's Kitzbuhel (KitzSki). After surveying mountains all over the continent (and the world) using topographical/slope steepness data and extrapolated precipitation patterns, this location was decided upon for its vertical drop, slope aspect (skiable slopes mostly face north instead of south), projected snowfall totals and snow quality, varied terrain, and natural beauty. The Canadian Rockies hold some of the best potential worldwide for the ultimate mountain resort based on geography and weather. For more information, please visit the Adamant Resort website! Next time!ĪRMR is a theoretical European-style ski resort in the pristine Selkirk Mountains of British Columbia. I now know that most people use a far easier and sneakier way around the rock glacier.

I was totally worked by the second time I came over! And this time I opted to descend the scree further toward Pleasant instead of chop more steps.

Bask in the glory of the shimmering ocean to the west and colossal glaciers to the east.Ĭoming back over Bombardment was the real test. Gain the ridge and hit all the high points, because who knows if the summit register is in the right place.

This route bypasses some fun but unnecessary 3rd to 4th class scrambling up cliff bands. Walk directly up to it, then take a ledge to your right. You'll eventually approach an obvious notch to your left, just below the ridge. Slog your way up this endless rock chute, stopping to examine or attempt some of the rowdy V0/V1 boulders along the way. From Bombardment, you'll see a 45 degree gully cutting up Rumble's SW face.

The route finding is pretty obvious almost to the summit ridge.
