About the Resort
About Jasper
Nestled deep within Jasper National Park, a spectacular UNESCO World Heritage site, Marmot Basin offers a relaxed and uncrowded skiing experience surrounded by breathtaking alpine scenery. Unlike heavily commercialized mega-resorts, Jasper retains an authentic, friendly mountain town charm where nature takes center stage and the local hospitality is genuinely warm.
The Resort
Boasting the highest base elevation of any major ski area in Canada, Marmot Basin enjoys incredibly dry, reliable Alberta powder. The terrain is evenly distributed across five mountain faces, offering everything from wide-open groomers and gladed tree runs to steep alpine bowls and rugged chutes. With zero lift lines and expansive wilderness, it is a haven for those looking to escape the crowds.
On the Mountain
Marmot Basin boasts an exceptional variety of terrain characterized by dry, light powder and uncrowded slopes. Beginners can enjoy top-to-bottom green runs, while experts are challenged by the steep, ungroomed double-black diamonds of Tres Hombres and Charlie's Bowl.
Canadian Rockies
Spanning Alberta and British Columbia, the Canadian Rockies offer unparalleled dramatic scenery, massive glaciers, and famously dry, light 'champagne powder'.
