Valeur patrimoniale

The Red Mountain Neighbourhood's has historic and social value due to its proximity to the Red Mountain Ski Resort which is the oldest ski operation in Western Canada, created in 1947 with the amalgamation of the local ski clubs.

The Red Mountain neighbourhood is named for the ski resort. The original name for Red Mountain, the geographical feature, was based on the colour of the soil.

Red Mountain is also valued as place to live where outdoor winter and summer recreation are at the core of day-to-day life. With its planning oriented to the ski hill and a predominance of buildings that convey a contemporary interpretation of the traditional ski chalet, Red Mountain is valued for having a local and recreational focus and unpretentious ambiance.
