Hidden Valley Ski Resort (HVSR) located in Cypress Hills Provincial Park that has been in operation since 1967. The base area facilities are located on Highway 41, approximately 1.5 km southeast of the Elkwater Townsite, and 65 km from the City of Medicine Hat.

HVSR currently operates one fixed grip quadruple chairlift (subject to replacement), one T-bar surface lift, on handle tow surface lift and one moving carpet conveyor belt surface lift. These lifts have a total hourly capacity of 2,890 skiers per hour and service twelve trails on 170 meters of skiable vertical drop. HVSR currently operates a snowmaking system which provides 95% coverage of the skiable terrain.

Due to aging infrastructure, a functional assessment of the snow-making will inform a new Facility Master Plan that will set a development vision for HVSR over the next several decades. This infrastructure assessment will provide a key decision point that will support the overall project plan. The Base Area Facilities will be assessed separately from this project.

The purpose of this RFP is to invite Proposals from suitably qualified Proponents who demonstrate sufficient experience and qualification to provide a comprehensive infrastructure assessment of sites as identified and supported by the Project Plan.

Refer to the RFP document for additional information and complete scope of work.
