Revelstoke Mountain Resort on Mount Mackenzie, British Columbia advertises the greatest lift-served vertical drop in North America, over 1,700 m. It is a relatively young, still-expanding resort (opened 2007) served by a two-stage gondola and a small number of chairlifts — no reversible cable car exists here.

What the sources say
Every note below is drawn from the resort's own or an independent official publication.
Lift count is disputed between sources (5 vs 7 total) and left null.
Piste-km figures come from a single source (skiresort.com) — North American convention publishes trail count (40) and acreage, not piste-km, officially; treat as an estimate.
Vertical drop (~1,710-1,713 m) is corroborated by two sources, supporting the "greatest vertical in North America" claim.
