About Kicking Horse
Kicking Horse sits in the Purcell Mountains above Golden, British Columbia, with a gondola rising from the base plaza to Eagle's Eye on the summit ridge. The upper mountain is a line of open bowls and steep chutes, while the lower runs are sheltered by forest, so the ridge can be in cloud and wind while the base stays calm. These Kicking Horse live cams let you check the ridge, the bowls and the base before you ride up.
Which Kicking Horse webcam to check first
Start with the snow plot at 2,060 metres for overnight snow, then Eagle's Eye and Stairway to Heaven for cloud and wind on the ridge. Terminator Peak and Crystal Bowl show the high alpine terrain, Catamount Chair shows the lower mountain and Base Plaza shows the village.
Before you go to Kicking Horse
Check the Kicking Horse snow report for open lifts and runs, and DriveBC for the Trans-Canada Highway through Rogers Pass and Kicking Horse Canyon before you drive. Wind can hold the gondola even on clear days.
Webcams and modelled weather can be delayed, incomplete or offline. A camera can't tell you whether a lift, piste, road or off-piste route is open or safe.
