If you’re looking to go beyond the resorts for turns in top-notch powder and the ultimate unplugged getaway, there’s no better choice than British Columbia’s backcountry lodges.
British Columbia has a well deserved reputation for having the best skiing in the world, and its backcountry has seen a major surge in popularity amongst skiers in recent years.
BC’s backcountry ski lodges are perfectly situated in ideal ski terrain and offer pristine wilderness ski touring with a high level of service and guiding that make for a relaxing world-class ski holiday.
Most of the ski touring and ski mountaineering that is available at backcountry ski lodges tends to be classic skiing that is accessible to anyone with solid downhill ski skills and a good level of fitness. Think 30-35 degree deep powder, not Alaska couloirs!
In this 57hours Adventure Talk, IFMGA/ACMG Mountain Guide Tom Wolfe talks about:
❄️ Why BC has the ideal climate and terrain that makes for legendary powder and perfect skiing conditions

🗻 Why Burnie Glacier Hut’s terrain is second to none, but demands a higher level of skill and fitness to make the most of this jaw dropping gem
🎿 What makes the Loft Peak run so special (think 4700 feet of powder skiing to awesomely steep gladed tree skiing)
🗓️ A typical day at a backcountry lodge - from sun up to skinning, the runs, the food and the evening stories
If you’ve wondered what it’s like to be at a lodge, now is your chance to tune in and hear firsthand from a guide who’s been hosting clients at these lodges for more than a decade.
