Freestyle Events come to Marmot
Marmot Basin has been selected as the host venue for two major freestyle
ski competitions this January. On January 15th & 16th, Marmot plays host
to the Alberta Provincial Freestyle Competition, featuring young
freestyle talent from across the province. The following weekend, on
January 22nd & 23rd, Marmot will host a national Canadian Series Event
with athletes coming from across the country to compete. These are two
great spectator events so come on out and support our young athletes!

What's New This Season
Marmot Basin has enjoyed an amazing start to the 2004-05 ski & snowboard
season! Not only are conditions superb, but the resort has opened more
terrain across the mountain to date than ever before. Eighty one (81)
of Marmot's eighty four (84) runs are already open, with safety crews
endeavoring to open the remaining 3 runs, all of which are
advanced/expert runs. The terrain park is open in the upper area on
"Marmot Run" with snow made features and three advanced rails. Check out
Marmot's new Caribou Bar & Lounge in the lower Caribou Chalet.

Purchase your lift tickets in Jasper before heading to the mountain at
Marmot's new Jasper Sales Centre, located in downtown Jasper. Skiers
and riders can also book lessons and rental equipment at the Jasper
Sales Centre for added convenience upon arrival to the mountain.
Great Weather = Great Skiing
Temperature inversions have happened on several days so far this season
with warmer temperatures at higher elevations. Head up to Marmot for
great skiing, incredible views and warmer weather. Check our snow report
daily for current weather conditions.
