Wap lake Road – Joss

Wap Lake Road – Joss

Area Type: Unmanaged

Riding: Huge, wide-open alpine terrain

Zone description
“Joss is a full-on zone, and the fact that people even ride there today is a result of years of hardcore Revelstoke locals testing the limits of their backyard. It’s sketchy to get in and once you do it doesn’t let up much, but if you enjoy the thrill for exploring and testing it on big, open features, then it might just be the place for you. If you know what’re you;re doing, have a solid crew, the sun is out and the snow stable, then joss has the terrain that can push you to the next level of riding ability.” – Sourced from Mountain Sledder Guidebook
