Big Days and Deep Snow in the Selkirks



Skill level
Intermediate
Group size
5 – 12 people
Come ski some great powder in British Columbia’s Selkirk Mountains. Rather than hut to hut skiing, we’ll be based at the beautiful Sunrise Lodge. The views are as stunning as the skiing, and the sauna is the perfect place to unwind after an awesome day in the backcountry.
Join us for huge tours, great meals, and incredible pow!
You can expect lots of alpine, tree-line and tree-skiing here, with everything from gentle open slopes to steep pillow lines.
Sunrise Lodge is located at the headwaters of Wisted Creek and offers stunning views of Rockies to the west and Purcells to the south. Sunrise is the southern gateway to the amazing Esplanade Range, including Meadow, Vista and Sentry Lodges. The consensus among those who’ve spent time at all four Esplanade Range Huts is that Sunrise is the best: best terrain, best for storm skiing, and best snowpack of the bunch!
