Redwood News

2nd and 3rd generations of redwood members (Anna Johnston & daughter Katie) have just completed both the “White Ring” and the “Run of Fame” ski courses through 7 villages around St. Anton.
A total of 101kms in bluebird weather and great snow. At the same time Ben Johnston and his family are skiing in Nozawa Onsen in Japan also in great snow.
Thanks to Redwood’s club’s 61 years of provenance.
Best wishes, Donald Johnston

History of Redwood

See the latest inclusion of Redwood in Donald Johnstons latest international award-winning publication.

Our original architect, Barry Gerret’s Redwood plans feature in the book as an example as to how he took advantage of the pioneering concessions to the then alpine building code (previously negotiated by my original architectural boss, Ray Jones with my drafting assistance in 1958) to achieve the compact planning of Redwood’s unique “A Frame” design.
