Lake Louise Backcountry Skiing

Had a great ski touring initiation with our guide. The location was amazing and everything about the sport was covered. Looking forward to future guided Backcountry trips.

This was a truly exceptional tour - our guide Mike was knowledgeable about the area, all safety requirements/precautions and was a pleasure to spend the day with. The team were able to accommodate different experience and skill levels in a way that didn't make more experienced group members feel held back at all and had newer skiers feel supported. Despite the lack of snow this season we were still able to find plenty of fresh lines and had a spectacular day!

Great guides- Sunshine resort (not Lake Louise- hence 1 star review b/c not applivable). We had a very low snow year. Our back country gang found great snow. Our side country gang would have needed to boot pack at least 45 mins to get good snow. Would definately book Alpine Air Adventures again.

This week with Brent at the Ymir Lodge was an unforgettable experience. We learned a lot inside the "classroom" and outside on the slopes. We were able to explore the mountain with the new information and test our decision-making in a guided setting. Brent did an amazing job making sure we were fed, stimulated, and safe. His tracks were complimented throughout the week and he really proved his ability to navigate through the terrain when he guided us, on our request, back to civilization instead of taking the helicopter back.

The back country is just over that ridge - just right there. You need a guide to access it safely though, and Jeff knew exactly where to go and what to do to create a fantastic - first time splitboarding experience for me. I've been to Lake Louise so many times, now I've seen a little of what is AROUND Lake Louise and my mind has been expanded. Will be back for more adventure for sure!

Great day of touring in the amazing surroundings around Lake Louise - the vue and silky powder snow were worth the effort of climbing!

I had such a great experience skiing backcountry for the first time! Jeff was an amazing guide and really helped us learn how to use backcountry equipment and avalanche gear. My only concern was that we were forced to change the date of our trip quite last minute and we were not given much information about the trip until only 1-2 days in advance. However, the trip itself was incredible! Thank you for such an amazing experience!

Really enjoyed our time with our guide, Troy. 5/5 Experience! Highly recommend.

The Bow-Yoho Traverse April 1 to April 7, 2019. Tom, the guides (Mel and Ken) and an assistant (John) led this trip with care, kindness, humour and expertise. When conditions required it, we were able to form 2 or 3 groups according to abilities and motivation. That was fabulous. Staying the first night in Field with supper and breakfast provided is a great way to begin the trip. The shuttle at the start and at the end was well-planned. When I signed up for the trip I had concerns about the quality of the food. Tom reassured me. He was right. Michelle Heerchop's 'Touch of Love" provided the food. It was varied, tasty and nutritious. I am very very pleased that I was able to be part of this trip. I highly recommend Tom's Sawback Alpine Adventures.
