Record Ridge - What’s at Stake for Tourism

A destination built on experience
Rossland is a designated resort municipality, known for outdoor recreation, healthy landscapes, and strong community identity. Tourism here depends on the quality of that experience.

Proximity matters
The proposed mine would sit near the Seven Summits Trail and close to Red Mountain Resort, two major draws for visitors from across B.C. and beyond.

Tourism depends on perception
Unresolved concerns around air and water quality, visual impacts, and trail disruption can affect how people experience a place, and whether they choose to return.

Investment relies on certainty
Tourism growth depends on long-term confidence. Uncertainty around land use and environmental impacts can deter future investment in the region.

This goes beyond one community
British Columbia has built a global reputation as a leader in sustainable tourism. Decisions made here can influence how that reputation holds up. Additionally, B.C.’s new outdoor recreation strategy is expected later in May 2026 making this a pivotal moment to show that recreation values need to be taken seriously.

This isn’t about choosing between economy and environment. In Rossland, they’re the same thing.
