Backcountry Basecamps
Comfortably explore your boundaries.
Our tent based, backcountry ski basecamps will take you deep into the backcountry. Basecamps are heli or snowmobile accessed programs optimally positioned and designed to maximize your downhill time.
A remote backcountry experience, but with a daypack!
We provide heated group basecamp tents, all cooking gear, meals and can provide private sleeping tents.
Basecamps are some of the highlights of our winters. We love to explore remote zones far off the beaten path. We offer a variety of backcountry basecamps in prime backcountry locations each winter. We can also create the experience you seek if you have a location or plan in mind. Contact us for details!

Location: Somewhere in the Columbia Mountains
Description: We’ll establish a camp in a location suited for the best ski/splitboard experience possible.

2) Out of respect for backcountry locales, we choose not to name the places we may go on this trip.
