Panorama is better if you’re after a quieter town, structured training, and more groomed terrain. It’s a unique mountain in British Columbia — 144 runs, loads of vertical, treelined runs, great off-piste, and a ratio of 3,000 acres to 3,000 beds that’s best in the world. Taynton Bowl is a real treat. Revelstoke is for strong intermediate to advanced freeriders — loads of off-piste, only 40 runs on-piste, big verticals, deep snow, and technical lines. If you’re not confident off-piste, Panorama is your spot.
