Ski-in Ski-out Backcountry

The above title might, at first glance seem rather absurd. The whole idea of the backcountry is that it is away from the resort, away from the development. However, if you come visit Island Lake Catskiing, you will quickly see why that isn't so absurd after all. You might also think, well just because you've hired a snowcat to take you back and forth doesn't really make it ski-in ski-out. That would be true, and in this case there is not fancy fine print. Island Lake's lodge is situated in respect to the terrain such that there are runs that come all the way up to the lodge. Catskiing BC Canada 

Not only do you get to ski the great backcountry here in Fernie, British Columbia, you get to maximize your snow time as well. The backcountry here would be worth it even if you did have to ride back to the lodge in the snow cat. Island Lake itself sits on 7,000 acres of steep shoots, endless ridges, and perfectly gladed forest. From the heights of the Lizard Range to the Cedar Valley, encompassing most of Mt. Baldy and Mt. Fernie, the terrain at Island Lake is truly varied. Add the particularly epic B.C. powder that drops here every year, the seemingly endless vertical available, and you've got yourself a dream vacation.

Not only is the terrain of Island Lake amazing, the luxury and service available at the lodge is simply fantastic. Enjoy the world-class spa, and then sit in the Outdoor room as the trials of the day slip away while you view your path across the slopes facing the lodge. Recharge your batteries with the savory gourmet food their experienced kitchen staff prepares fresh every day. At the very least, rest soundly in their sumptuous quarters. If you want this great ski-in ski-out experience, book soon as Island Lake’s tours are already selling out. Cat Skiing BC Canada
