Backcountry skiing

Entering the backcountry is always exciting, but make sure you go with people in the know. These are some of those people.

Stuff We Like

Specialising in off-piste courses, hut-to-hut ski touring and avalanche training

Cat Skiing

Fernie's amazing powder conditions, awesome tree runs, cliffs and open bowls.

These guys also offer you the chance to rip up the sublime powder conditions on offer in Fernie.

Big Red Cats

Fresh tracks, deep powder, and no lines - catskiing and boarding at Big Red Cats provides all that and more - all conveniently located near to the snow mecca of Red Mountain.

Heli Skiing

Stay at the exclusive Bear Claw Lodge, a haven in the remote wilderness of Canada’s North Nestled on the banks of the Kispiox River. Oh, and as if that wasn't good enough there's the small matter of heli skiing each day. Good times.
