Default Rocky Mountain House - where to go?

I am going to be in the Rocky Mountain House area (closest city Red Deer).


What is the closest mountain to go snowboarding at?

Suggestions and directions?

Thanks,

Banff (Sunshine, Lake Louise, Norquay) is about 3 1/2 hours away, Jasper
(Marmot Basin) about 4 1/2. To get to Banff, get to highway 2, south on
highway 2 to Airdrie, west on highway 567 to highway 22, south on
highway 22 through Cochrane to the #1 (TransCanada), west on the
TransCanada to Banff. Or you could go into Calgary on highway 2 then
take the TransCanada (which is 16th Ave in Calgary) to Banff, but that's
a good 45 minutes longer.

Not sure if there is any local hill near RMH.


Neil
