If you are just looking for one or two days off-piste guiding
then together with one of our
experienced guides we can take you there.
For skiers and boarders looking to go off-piste around
Kicking Horse, we take you into the endless powder
bowls adjacent to the resort. We ride
lifts high into the alpine and then go into the
backcountry. With only a small amount of hiking*, we find ourselves on top
of 1000ft couloirs, 3500ft powder runs, and untouched
snow fields. We then have an amazing run, or maybe
two, before traversing back to the resort to start
it all over again.
If you are looking for a guide to take you to the legendary Roger's Pass or one of the
many backcountry huts in he national parks
of British Columbia or wish more than one day of guiding, please contact us for more information and prices.
When you book our private guiding service we can help achieve your goals. You might want to be shown the
extreme couloirs of Kicking Horse or be an improving skier or boarder
wanting some deep powder techniques and avalanche education.
Our highly trained guides have extensive first
aid and avalanche certifications as well as an
extensive knowledge of the guiding area. If you are lookng to include an instructor with your off-piste skiing or boarding then we can also help.
Prices below are for guiding services based out of Kicking Horse resort.

*To get the most out of the experience guests require
backcountry travel equipment. For skiers this
would be an alpine touring set-up with skins,
for snowboarders; snowshoes and collapsible poles
or a split board are the best option. Contact
Powder Adventures for more information.
All guests going into the backcountry are required
to wear an avalanche transceiver as well as carry
a small backpack containing an avalanche probe
and small rescue shovel. If guests are not familiar
with backcountry safety equipment Canadian Powder
Skiing Adventures guides will take sufficient
time to make guests comfortable before proceeding
into the backcountry. Guests are also encouraged
to wear an ABS avalanche safety backpack of which
we are a dealer. Backcountry safety equipment
is available for rent from Canadian Powder Skiing
Adventures.
