For those willing to make the effort to climb into the alpine, backcountry skiing in the Revelstoke area offers unlimited Kootenay Rockies powder and the opportunity to experience the quiet and tranquility of the mountains. However, it's imperative that skiers have appropriate skills, equipment and avalanche training before embarking on a backcountry experience. For the inexperienced, the best option is to travel with a qualified guide.

Rogers Pass

Glacier National Park covers an area of 1,391sq km/537sq mi and lives up to its name with an abundance of glaciers and ice fields. At the centre of it all, the high elevation of Rogers Pass (1,323m/4,340ft), combined with relatively easy access by car and public transportation, makes it the perfect staging point for ski touring. Parks Canada operates two backcountry huts in the park.
