Tonight will be our third and final night in Revelstoke. We decided to come here after being underwhelmed with Golden, BC. This is a beautiful ski resort that also is open in the summer. The name of the resort is Sutton Place Hotel Revelstoke Mountain Resort.
The ride here from Golden was nice with mostly clear weather. Yesterday was a down day and the weather was overcast. Today was beautiful. We rode as far up Revelstoke Mountain in the national park as possible. They were still clearing snow so we couldn't go all the way to the top.
Sooz and I went to the Revelstoke Railway Museum while Ted and Sheila went for a hike. Like a lot of the mountain towns, Revelstoke was built around the rails.
Later, Ted, Sheila and I rode the gondola up to the top of the ski mountain, walked on the Skyway Walk and then rode the monorail carts down to the bottom. A full day. I dropped a bunch of photos that I think are self explanatory.

Oh what a beautiful, wonderful day! Well earned. Hugs to all. M
