Ski British Columbia Tour

 

Backcountry ski touring adventure in Canada focused on backcountry and cat skiing in the British Colombia interior.


The ski Canada BC Interior Blitz road trip is a 10-day Backcountry Touring Focus skiing and snowboarding adventure traveling through the interior of British Columbia, Canada. This guided powder adventure for advanced and experts, will be spent chasing Canada's legendary dry powder, visiting relaxing hot springs, and ski touring endless advanced and expert off piste and backcountry terrain near the BC ski resorts of Whitewater, Red Mountain, Kicking Horse, Silver Star, Big White, and the new Revelstoke Mountain Ski Resort.
 
As our powder road trip continues we will travel deeper into Canada's backcountry skiing and snowboarding world by ski touring Roger's Pass in the Selkirks. We also mix it up with a few days of optional cat skiing (cat boarding) with Valhalla PowderCats, our favorite cat ski operation in British Columbia with 6 times more ski and snowboard freeride terrain than Whistler Blackcomb ski resorts combined.
 
After a day on your randonee set up or split board touring the backcountry with your PowderQuest guides, our nights are based in cozy hotels and bed and breakfasts in Nelson, Golden, Kelowna and Revelstoke. These British Columbian towns keep us connected to the locals, fun Canadian nightlife and delicious restaurants. This is a true powder road trip adventure in Canada.
