What can be scary, weighs around 700 plus pounds, and lives at a ski resort? Give up? Boo. Not Boo Who? Just Boo. The golden horse knows this, as sensitive nostrils smell Boo, driving the horse of golden to kick. Step away, step away from that fence, beware, as the bare backed horse has done. Wanna jump off the gondola? Not around here, as Boo gonna get ya, Boo gonna chase you down, Boo gonna run as fast as the golden horse that kicks.
Many ski resorts make gold in the winter months, make more gold when the powder falls fast from the heavens. This ski resort doesn’t rely on just one form of gold, as the town of Golden is at the base of the White Tooth Range. Churning thighs dip into chutes high above, kicking turns of soft powder away, as the churning and kicking river of the horse, roams the valley below. Kicking Horse, Golden, British Columbia, knows that answer to the question, as Boo is the answer.
Grizzly bears, those cute and furry animals with a temper. All trail horses fear grizzlys and so does the Kicking Horse, as Boo, the resident grizzly bear lives at the ski resort, under the gondola, possibly ready to show himself. Venture here in deep winter, a sleep for sure is to be had, come and enjoy some spring skiing, Boo may be up. As the gondola passes by, all eyes look down, however beware, in the distance, far, far away from Boo, is the forever steeps of Kicking Horse. Ridge after ridge, easy to hide from the next avid skier, awaits, 4,000 feet up from the start of your ascent. Kick some turns, bear the pain, no horsing around up here, as skiing Kicking Horse will make you feel golden down at the base.
