Island Lake will open for summer on June 17th

Winter does not really feel over yet, but we are already planning for summer.  We will open for summer operations on June 17th.  Island Lakes summer activities include:  guided hiking on some of the best trails in the area, fine dining on a spectacular deck, Fernie's only full day spa and some of the best fly-fishing in North America.  Island Lake is also one of the most scenic places to get married in B.C.
We hope to see you this summer.

Island Lake Catskiing ends a fantastic snow season

Sad but true - the best ski season in recent memory has come to an end.  We have had a remarkable amount of powder snow this winter and our guests have been amazed.  We are ending the season with a 6 metre (20 foot) base in the alpine.  The snow continued to fall right up until early April - we actually had a metre of powder fall in the last week alone!! Incredible skiing right until the end. 

We now have a waiting list for many tours.  You probably want to book for next year as soon as possible.

– Island Lake Catskiing extends its winter operating season.

Fernie, British Columbia. March 21st, 2011 – Island Lake Catskiing extends its winter operating season.

Island Lake Catskiing has been having an amazing snow year.  The consolidated base in the alpine is around 5.5 metres or 18 feet of snow.  “With the extraordinary amount of snow we have, it only makes sense to keep on running into April” says Mike McPhee from Island Lake Catskiing.  The resort will run an extra multi-day trip April 3-6 and be running day skiing until at least April 7^th.   “If you have not had enough snow yet and enjoy sunny spring skiing, give us a call”. Added McPhee

Island Lake Catskiing in Fernie B.C. has been a backcountry ski industry leader for over 20 years.
