BRC is one of the only cat skiing operations that offers a full spectrum of trip levels. We operate separate cats for differing ability levels. These groups access different areas of our varied terrain so you can get the most out of the day! For instance, if you are a blue run skier and want to experience backcountry powder at your pace, we offer Intermediate trips. On the other hand, if you like to go fast, ski steeps, and like air-time, the Expert or even our Pro-Level might be for you!

This trip caters to skiers and riders who are newer to deep powder skiing or prefer an extra cruisy day. Your day will start with gentle runs with sparse trees. Depending on the group, it may advance to skiing easy glades with widely-spaced trees, and gradually steeper terrain. By the end of the day, you will probably be skiing advanced runs, but at a slower pace than the Advanced group. We will help you work towards skiing powder confidently in a fun, low-pressure environment.
Skiers and snowboarders at this level are those who:
Advanced skiers and riders enjoy diverse terrain including gladed areas, open bowls, steeper terrain, and trees. We ski and ride at a comfortable pace, allowing everyone to enjoy their runs without a rushed feeling, and regroup a couple of times on the way down for a breather and a laugh.
Skiers and snowboarders at this level are those who:
At this level, we will ski non-stop, fast-paced, challenging descents consisting mainly of steeps and tree runs. This group will constantly push our guides to ski/ride faster down steeper and longer runs and aim to maximize their day. Sometimes we will ski runs that have greater risk, in which case your guide may send each person down one at a time.
Skiers and snowboarders at the "Expert" level are those who:
This trip is designed for expert and aggressive skiers and riders only.
Previously named "Uber-Expert", the Pro-Level cat is dedicated to showing you the most expert terrain we have. We spend the day hunting out drops, chutes, technical terrain features, and steep trees. If you are looking to step up the adrenaline and be challenged, this is for you.
