Touring in Canada

Experience Ski Touring in Incredible Canada

Canada is a backcountry lover’s dream. From British Columbia's beautiful interior landscape to that famous stretch of peaks visible from space, the Rocky Mountains, ski touring in the Great White North should be on every powder hunter’s bucket list. A ski touring trip out to Canada’s unrestricted terrain brings the sort of freedom every skier and rider puts their boots on for. Visitors will have their vision drowned by endless mountain terrain, natural features will drop even the most elite rider’s jaw, and incomparable light and fluffy powder will be the reward for those led by the world’s top backcountry guides. Canada shouldn’t just be on ski touring enthusiasts must-ride list… it should claim the top spot.

Be Aware

Heading cross-country in a deserted winter wilderness, and leaving the comfort of resort skiing well and truly in the shadows of unpatrolled mountains, means a reward of a lifetime – fresh tracks on empty mountain faces. But ski touring does come at a price… plenty of huffing and puffing.

Ski touring is a physical game, so you’ll need to be sure your fitness is up to scratch. Before heading off to your destination, make sure you’ve put in the time to get your body in top shape and speak to your doctor if you have concerns about your suitability for ski touring. For more information on what our ski touring trips involve, get in touch with LUEX.

Three Reasons Canada is Ideal for Ski Touring

01

World-renowned powder

Canada’s west coast is hit with solid precipitation from its neighbouring Pacific Ocean. This moisture follows a steep route to British Columbia’s mountain peaks and dowses the region with light, fluffy powder. Alberta, next door to coastal BC, gets a similar dumping across its impressive, tall and seemingly endless Rocky Mountains. That fresh white stuff is in abundance in these parts and has cemented Canada as a world-class backcountry destination since the dawn of ski touring.

02

Consistent conditions

A “poor season” in Canada is a scarce occurrence, and often still dominates the typical winter in most ski destinations. Consistent conditions are exactly what skiing in Canada is all about and exactly what visitors want to see. Ski touring, with all its efforts required in getting to the mountain peak on foot, demands favourable conditions and a healthy downpour of snow (some bluebird days won’t go astray either!) for it to be truly desirable. So, for those considering their first (or second or third…) ski touring trip to Canada, you can rest assured that Mother Nature will paint you a very white landscape on your visit.

03

Feel at home in Canada’s friendly, hospitable and kind culture

Anyone who appreciates the warmth and friendliness of a foreign country’s locals will adore Canada. The country has an esteemed kindness that makes the region so easy to return to. The culture – somewhat oddly put – is like a loving hug from your grandma, and has a warmth to it which needs to be felt to be understood. Smile at strangers, laugh with new friends and join the masses that feel right at home on a visit to Canada.
