intro to ski mountaineerinG - (Rogers pass, British Columbia)
Ski tour with a guide at Rogers Pass and enjoy the best deep powder skiing to be had.
Situated at the crest of the Selkirk Mountains, 45 minutes from Revelstoke, British Columbia, Rogers Pass is the premier backcountry ski touring destination in Canada. It catches the big storms coming off the Pacific but is far enough inland that the powder stays light and dry. In clear weather we have ski ascents of peaks, high alpine terrain and sprawling glaciers. If it is snowing we move into the trees for deep snow and better visibility. Long glacier runs, breathtaking scenery, steep tree skiing and deep snow, Rogers Pass has it all.
Rogers Pass is in the center of Glacier National Park, a protected wilderness area far from the ski lifts and crowds. We stay at the comfortable Best Western Hotel. With many trips starting and ending right at your room it is the perfect location. Ski a 6000 foot powder run down to the hot tub, drinks and diner. The roadside location allows flexibility in trip planning with dates and group size. Anything from single day trips, avalanche courses or week long trips are easily accommodated.
