As Chic Scott writes in Summit & Icefields – Columbia Mountains: “The ski terrain at Fairy Meadow is superb and the snow in this part of the Selkirks is deep, so the area has become a favourite destination for backcountry skiers.”.
The possible tours from the hut are numerous and include everything from tree skiing and quick moraine runs close to the hut to tours over glaciers, passes and around stunning peaks.
The Edmonton Section has an exclusive whole-hut week booking at Fairy Meadow from March 14-21, 2026. The Fairy Meadow hut is accessed by helicopter with staging out of Golden, BC. This is a self-guided and self-catered trip.
Cost is $1650.00
