Kicking Horse Mountain Resort, located at the confluence of the Kicking Horse and Columbia rivers just outside Golden, Alberta, is a year-round destination. In winter, it attracts visitors with its world-class ski runs, reliable powder, and easily accessible backcountry terrain. During the summer, the resort transforms into a haven for mountain biking, hiking, and wildlife viewing. One of its unique features is the home of Boo, an orphaned grizzly bear, adding an extra layer of natural wonder to the experience.
