yeah, the slackcountry at revy is way better than anything inbounds. but I think inbounds revy sucks, so...

most stuff you can see from the hill is all boot pack stuff, if you venture over highway bowl way, skinning is required, but still pretty easy to figure out. Not what I consider the best slackcountry in the Kootenays, but it doesn't suck in the slightest.

Nice alpine feel, chutes and open faces, better fall line skiing than inbounds. If you're feeling real ballsy, Mac Face is committing enough to scare the best of the best. If you're feeling mellow the cat skiing zone can be skied with your eyes closed.

Well, if it hasn't snowed in a while, stuff gets tracked...
