Revelstoke Mountain's BEST Ski Spots

[@gavin8832]

Another awesome video Matt. I hope you had a good holiday. I’m super jealous that you have so many days on the snow already. Still completely green here.

[@BramskiVlogs]

Thanks Gavin, making the most of what we have. It's only a base of 85cm but we'll take it at this point. Is there any snow in the forecast for you?

[@rufusni5320]

Super excited! Gonna be there next week. First time in Revelstoke!

[@BramskiVlogs]

I'm hoping we get some fresh snow for you mate just in time for your arrival. Great conditions up top. Everything below the gondola is otherwise marginal.

[@iBeckdawg]

great video, making my to revvy in about 3 weeks, cant wait!!

[@BramskiVlogs]

Thanks mate. Conditions have improved massively here. 30cm of snow yesterday!

[@sleepychicken4878]

Love your enthusiasm!

[@BramskiVlogs]

Thanks 🤙 I love being on the slopes

[@Simonjburgess]

Quality Matt. Keep em coming

[@BramskiVlogs]

Cheers Simon! Got some new camera gear to bring into the vlogs soon!

[@Simonjburgess]

@@BramskiVlogs oooooh me too. First day filming with a 360 cam today. Excited to see what you bring

[@BramskiVlogs]

@@Simonjburgess you too? NICE, I got the insta 360 what about you?

[@Simonjburgess]

@@BramskiVlogs same… great minds 😂

[@BramskiVlogs]

@@Simonjburgess think alike, the editing app seems a lot better than the gopro max. We should compare notes in a live stream sometime soon!

Looks amazing!

It's been a good few days!

I found the best spots for powder skiing at Revelstoke Mountain Resort. Despite little early season snowfall I discovered areas at Revelstoke that had excellent ski conditions.

[@mattdavidge2184]

Another great video. Do you wear avvy gear when skiing inbounds, or ducking into the side country beyond Jalapeño?

[@BramskiVlogs]

Thanks ❤️ currently I don't but I have got an avy set up for intended touring this year. On the resort I'm not going in areas unless I know they've been blasted before. We've had so little snow lately that the risk is minimal and i was very close to the ropes. But if I was to go a lot further over to Montana bowl then I would probably take my avi gear. I believe Chris Rubens was with a group in there end of last winter and they were caught in an avalanche. Shows it can happen.

[@kascade9145]

Amazing

[@BramskiVlogs]

Thank you!

[@ottawasbestcoffee6511]

Can you exit from the sub peak to south bowl if you wanna see the sub peak view but don’t wanna do powder assault? We are comfortable with Lemming Line and Meet the Neighbours but don’t wanna get in over our heads lol. (We are still scarred from our survival skiing on white wall at KH last season 😅😬)

[@BramskiVlogs]

Yes absolutely 💯 😀Off the sub peak where I traversed you can just take right turn and ski down from there which will eventually rejoin jalapeño/hot sauce etc. Plenty of space up there to take the turns you need.

[@ottawasbestcoffee6511]

@@BramskiVlogs Thank you!

[@BramskiVlogs]

@@ottawasbestcoffee6511 thanks for watching !

[@l34han]

The dry snow in north bowl was amazing, but the long flat run at the bottom was painful for snowboarders 😂

[@BramskiVlogs]

It really was. I wish I'd gone in there rather than pushing over to Greely. But I really enjoyed south bowl and Montana in the sun! Yeah thay cat track was ungroomed at the bottom of north/Greely. Not fun even for the skiers 😂

[@Gooooosey]

any advises for first time at revy? we've been only skiing at resorts before but have been pretty good even on the harder runs?

[@BramskiVlogs]

The pisted runs are now in excellent conditions up top and they are a great way to start getting used to the vertical at revelstoke...it does catch people off guard when it's their first time. If you're looking to try going in the trees for the first time then stick to the likes of tally ho glades/Clyde's secret glades and stihl life glades as they are all between pisted runs and will bring back onto a cat track to get back to the stoke chair. If you're feeling adventurous, want something more challenging and don't mind a little hike then head to north bowl.

[@pat13487]

❤❤❤

[@ItzBlazeofficial]

how long does the subpeak hike take?

[@BramskiVlogs]

Great question, depends on fitness. But first time of the season it took me about 30 minutes. You're above 2000metres so the heart rate gets going. I went up twice the next day and it took me around 20 minutes.

[@ItzBlazeofficial]

good to know, ill probably just do the lemming line then. can you get to greely bowl from that?

[@BramskiVlogs]

@@ItzBlazeofficial yes from both of them. Watch our for that traverse over, it's a lot narrower than previous years right now.

[@ItzBlazeofficial]

good to know. by the way, revy is in for a stormy few weeks after the 5th of january. a ridge of high pressure over most of the interior plains has finally broken down after what seems like months and allows cold air and storms to finally reach the interior, leaves the storm potential open for maybe 2 weeks at least. praying for snow ill be out on the 15th

[@janmartens2493]

​@@ItzBlazeofficialwould be awesome! We need it, fresh tracks are slinking down in greely😅.

[@jaytabac6525]

possibly the most under serviced ski hill in north america with some of the best terrain. gotta climb to get to the best terrain and then suffer a death defying ski out each time. Only 3 lifts in the entire resort !! c'mon revelstoke ownership - time to add new lifts as has been rumoured for years.

[@BramskiVlogs]

There's one planned for south bowl but no timeline on it yet.

[@jaytabac6525]

i have been skiing Revelstoke since it re-opened in 2008. I have been hearing about lift expansion ever since. after 14 years of operation it is evident that ownership is happy taking in profits without reinvesting into capitol improvements in lift services. its true that the terrain is amazing, highest vertical in the rockies, good snow, etc . . . when all is said and done, you are left with long lift lines and an under serviced ski hill. will not be going back any time soon. @@BramskiVlogs

[@jaytabac6525]

@@BramskiVlogs which is code for nothing is happening and there are no concrete pans to do anything.

[@BramskiVlogs]

@@jaytabac6525 I'm not sure when you've experienced long lift lines at revy and what exactly you would count as 'long'. In the three winters ive been here you barely ever have to wait and if i did its maximum 10- 15 mins. February long weekend is an exception but it's definitely not a whistler style lift line. This winter is different too because you've not had most of the mountain open due to the low snowfall, so everyone's been pushed up to the top of the mountain. But I think Revelstoke is the youngest ski hill in all of Canada right? I'm glad it's not an overly developed resort just yet, you have to actually put in some leg work to get to the sweet spots and it makes it all the more worth it. If that's not the skiing you enjoy that's then that's ok.

[@jaytabac6525]

@@BramskiVlogs as i stated. i have been to Revy about 7-8 times. I agree that it has some excellent terrain, but as i am getting older, i am not thrilled about limited lifts, long waits when there is good snow, long ski outs and traversing to get to most of the good terrain, and i cannot climb more than once per day. the ski out is brutal as well. i prefer kicking horse by far. also prefer Whistler. We get up early and get to the top before most people, and lap the good snow a few times before most people show up. At Whistler, there are so many great places to ski due to the vast lift accessibility.

[@kevincafaro8846]

hopefully no more ski videos like this one. Powder only this year!!!!

[@grahamcore2840]

You realize as you share. this info every day forward it becomes crowded ....typical poser mate wtf

[@BramskiVlogs]

Well thank you for your positive contribution mate. Have a nice day.

[@ryanbrubacher2673]

Ya so many tools online giving away the lesser known spots. People used to be cool, then losers got social media accounts instead of friends and decided to ruin the mountain. The secret spots aren't for the tourists, that's the point, when you frequent the mountain you find them or ride them with other locals. The sad thing is most of these influencers won't actually make any substantial income from steaming, so they are selling out everyone for nothing but clout. Dude, just ride the mountain and enjoy it.

[@fernandog.aguirre2791]

Would you mind to keep it quiet......! I don't think locals will happy with your videos!
