If digital signs are on your radar, you can’t miss these 3 solutions
Weatherproof Digital Signage For Ski Resorts By Radius Displays & Inter-Mtn.
Whether a run is closed for race training, a child is missing, or a lift is on lightning standby, digital signage gives you the power to share real-time communications.
By simply tapping a button, your digital signs and digitized grooming boards will provide real-time status updates for lifts and runs. Not only does this upgrade reduce labour and allocate staff toward more urgent duties, but it also provides guests with timely and relevant information.

Now that you’re considering digital signage to modernize your resort, we, the team at Inter-Mtn. Enterprises Inc. want you to know that there are three sophisticated and reliable solutions, which you may review below. And with our help, along with Radius Displays, you’ll be set for success just like these satisfied customers.
While the three durable, reliable, and cost-effective solutions we offer are built specifically for snow environments that are extremely bright, harsh, and remote, each has unique characteristics, benefits, and uses. To see which works best for you, please continue. It is also worth noting that these screens are weatherproof and proven to endure harsh freeze/thaw weather patterns while meeting your visual and budget requirements. Warranty, maintenance, and onsite technical support are also included.
1. Digital Grooming Boards
Digital grooming boards provide real-time updates on grooming, trail status, and resort information. Fed from your tablet, smartphone, or laptop, it eliminates tasks like moving grooming board sliders in the middle of winter.

Set-up is easy! The plug-and-play solutions make these LEDs easy to install. With just a few bolts to affix to structures, you will be up and running with this easy-to-implement program’s integrated software.
LEDs are visible in all light conditions. The product is fully sealed and won’t over or underheat—no fans or heaters are required. The LED cabinets are waterproof and come encased in an enclosure using UL-approved electrical components. If this is on your radar, let us know how we can help.
Loon Mountain Resort
Integrates seamlessly into your signage program. Digital grooming boards can work in tandem with large full-screen displays. While one greets your guests with relevant information, the other can be placed closer to chairlifts, working as a coordinated unit. If you’d like to discuss the tag-team solution, we’d love to help.

With our help, as the premier supplier of signs and specialty products to North America’s outdoor recreation industry, you can utilize our experience and expertise to incorporate new designs, run names, mountain maps, chair and terrain park status, snow reports, and even include the Alpine Responsibility Code or the Your Responsibility Code, which we helped the NSAA redesign for American Ski Resorts.
2. Large Full-Screen Displays
If marketing, prices, and communications change throughout the day, these large full-screen displays will welcome your guests with relevant summer, winter, and holiday greetings. Typically seen outdoors in base areas, these large LEDs are state-of-the-art, built to last, and easy to maintain, and with Radius’ experience, you can add a digital display to a terminal or even retrofit.

One of the biggest advantages of large full-screen displays is exactly that, the big size! They may be as large or little as you wish.
Once installed, you’ll have the ability to relay dynamic promotions, display static or animated advertising, and share urgent communications, weather, and snow while providing additional wayfinding information to help your guests. And because all of this is managed remotely, it’s easy to update what your guests see.

Another great benefit of this energy-efficient and durable interchangeable signage is that it remains visible on a sunny bluebird day and night skiing. So, at any time of day, you may promote tubing, encourage guests to sign up for lessons, share an upcoming event, and stack your communications by following that up with specials on accommodation and food, all the while never having to adjust the brightness or contrast on your large full-screen display. Get started by contacting us to discuss modernizing your signage.

3. Combination of Static Signage, Grooming Boards, & Digital Screens
Static signage, grooming boards, and digital screens create the perfect blend of modern infrastructure. Tailored to your budget, a combination of this trio creates an all-inclusive board that enhances operations and guest experience by communicating relevant information.
The all-inclusive board can be updated instantly and is available in large sizes with mountain maps and risk management signage. Or, if you have a specific space, the combo sign can fit that while giving your guests real-time information on grooming reports, snowfall, temperature, alerts, specials and communications.
Grouse Mountain
Like the two options above, this third digital solution collaborates nicely with the others. By adding a full-screen display to your base, placing this combo at the bottom of the lift, and incorporating digital grooming boards at the top of the lift, your guests get a fully immersive experience. Best of all, updating these digital signs is far more convenient for you and your staff.
Software
Digital signage operates with your chosen software, but our favourites are Resorts Interactive, which we are an Authorized Representative for.
SeeMonster
SeeMonster enables you to display live dynamic messages directly from your snow report onto screens around resort and hotel TVs; all managed over the Internet in an easy-to-use and scheduled format. SeeMonster can be used to power Radius Displays, digital grooming boards, and exterior screens.

ReportPal
ReportPal moves your snow report from your website CMS to the cloud. This customizable and easy-to-use software results in a consistent platform, clean data, easy third-party integration, and decreased costs.
vicoMap
vicoMap is THE interactive map for ski areas with live lift and trail data. It is web-responsive and cloud-hosted. Easy website embedding and, best of all, there are no setup costs – built from your existing Illustrator file.
Bonus: Physical Grooming Boards
While digital signage has many advantages, such as convenience and immediacy, the format may only work for some. Therefore, we also offer impeccably reliable and durable aluminum grooming boards.
Revelstoke Mountain Resort
Like their modern counterparts, these traditional grooming boards inform guests and staff of hill conditions. Design styles are varied and can easily complement your pre-existing sign program. Also, there are alternative slider systems available.
Additionally, if you’d like to include a heavy-duty mountain map, we can hand-paint that. To learn more about that process, check out our interview with The Storm Skiing Journal and Podcast.
