The Cat Is Out Of The Bag - Panorama Announces New Monster X Snowcat

Meet Monster X. A new snowcat that’s more tiger than kitty, and roomy enough to take a dozen monster-whisperers into Panorama Mountain Resort’s biggest terrain. Because when the monsters are calling, it’s best to pick up.

That’s why the Monster X is purring to pick-up anyone who dreams of bigger, badder and better; the fearless and fearful types who tingle at the thought of brutish and long terrain. What was once only accessible by slogging forth on foot, can now be reached in the belly of a monster. Monster X, that is.

“The Monster X snowcat is just one of the many ways Panorama is pushing boundaries to create incredible mountain experiences for everyone,” says Steve Paccagnan, President & CEO. “Last year we opened an additional 128 acres of terrain, this year we’re excited to offer the Monster X snowcat, making this terrain even more accessible.”

The Monster X terrain boasts four double-black diamond lines guaranteed to make folks face their fierce. The terrain addition means Panorama now has 1,300 metres of vertical, among the top 10 in North America. It’s no wonder Panorama was a finalist in the 2018 World Ski Awards for Canada’s Best Ski Resort.

If the thought of being comfortably carried to meet the steep, deep and wide-open wildness sounds terribly perfect - well,  it is. Monster X season passes are on sale right meow for $299. For details visit PanoramaResort.com/Monster-X

Think this sounds downright scary? Feel like sleeping with the lights on? Rest-assured there’s more to the mountains at Panorama. There’s plenty of perfectly groomed and friendly runs to cruise down. And there’s monstrously great resort experiences for those in search of a monster-free mountain vacation.

A Monster X Deep Tracks program will also be available for those seeking exclusive first tracks in the monstrous terrain. And guests will be able to travel by snowcat to après dining up on the mountain.

Panorama is a four-season destination resort that offers skiing, golf, lift-accessed mountain biking and an abundance of recreational activities and events.

The resort was named “North American Resort of the Year” in the 2016 World Snow Awards. Located on British Columbia’s famed Powder Highway, Panorama offers winter enthusiasts 4,265 feet of vertical descent (Top 10 in Canada), wide-open fall-line cruisers, powder-filled tree lines and the steep and deep exhilaration of Taynton Bowl.

The resort is home to RK Heliski and BC’s no.1 public golf course at Greywolf.
