We offer two versions of this, our signature winter trip: the Turning Traverse and Touring Traverse, to suit our guests' preferences.
Both are fully catered and guided, and include chalet accommodation, safety equipment, and sno-cat access to the trailhead.
If you are able to bring a group of six or more, then we let you choose your own date (as available)!
The Turning Traverse
(Two cabins, seven days)
If your idea of a perfect ski holiday is YoYo skiing - going up, then coming down - this is the trip for you!
Expect spectacular runs, reliably covered in deep Cariboo Mountain Powder.
This is a challenging trip, and is recommended for intermediate and advanced skiers with good physical fitness.
DATES:
- February 12 to 18 2006
- March 19 to 26 2006
COST: $1050.00 + 7% GST
(Fully catered and guided, including chalet accommodation, safety equipment, and sno-cat access to trailhead)
The Touring Traverse
(Three cabins, seven days)
A must for serious ski adventurers!
This trip combines some challenging vertical runs with extensive touring and exploring. The terrain between the first two cabins, Trophy and Discovery, is largely steep and deep: on the fifth day you travel north into the Fight Meadow, home of the Mountain Caribou and some of the best ski-touring country in BC.

COST: $1050.00 + 7% GST
