Parks & Nature
The second warmest lake in Canada and a fantastic swimming hole. The lake is on the border of the Okanagan climate so expect it to be +30* if Rossland is in the low 20's. The water gets to 20*C by late may even mid winter expect it to be quite a bit milder than Rossland.

A great place to paddle board, float, take the pooch for a swim or just escape the heat at the higher elevation in the summer.

Salmo River
Decent fly fishing depending on the season
Gimli Peak
Odin says: "hike here if you dare!" Breathtaking views and stellar climbing!
Endless backcountry options in both winter and summer. We recommend proper backcountry gear, a snowmobile or mountain bike in summer and at least one friend to share it with. If you lack these things the folks at retallack.com can accommodate. As a kid, Davis Suzuki discovered his love of nature in these mountains. I'll let you discover how the government made this happen for him and his family.

Whaaat? There's a ski hill in town!
Yup those miners needed something to do on their infrequent days off and the town needed an economy after they plundered all the gold on, well guess...some things never change.
RED is a powderhound's tree skiing wet dream, seriously bring your GoreTex, DWR or whatever magical nano water repellant you prefer and a snorkel because this collection of peaks gets a fair bit of snow falling between its perfectly spaced evergreens.
Despite the town's hardest efforts RED will never blow up, for that to happen we need a real airport and a plethora of other things one simply can't bring to a tiny town. So go ahead tell everyone you meet how good it is!

Everything Else
Our local golf course. I'm saving golf for my 60's (because my knees & hips still work) but I'm told its a great course. For now my dogs love the grass & terrain on walks in the off season.
