ACCOMMODATION & MEALS - FERNIE
In 2007 we purchased the Red Tree Lodge and completed a $1.3 million renovation to make this ‘the place to stay in Fernie’. The lodge offers a relaxed and comfortable place to rest your weary legs after a hard days skiing. Most rooms are twin rooms (two double/queen beds) but we also have a limited number of triple and quad rooms as well. All rooms have en-suite bathrooms and stunning mountain views. Facilities include: indoor pool, hot tub, sauna and much more. To find out about our lodge please:
For those wanting a more independent experience we offer the chance to live in a house in downtown Fernie just a few minutes walk from the bars and shops on the main street and from the NONSTOP lodge.
Living in a house will allow more space, privacy and self-sufficiency than living in the lodge. Those living in houses will still be able to enjoy and use all the facilities at the lodge. Each house sleeps between 4 and 8 people and has a comfortably furnished sitting room (with TV, DVD player and stereo), dining area and fully equipped kitchen. Most people share twin rooms although there are a limited amount of single rooms, offered on a ‘first come, first served' basis for an additional charge.
Our top chefs provide weekday breakfasts and dinners that are served at the Red Tree Lodge. Our breakfasts are extremely popular with a vast array of continental style treats, with freshly baked muffins, breads, cereals, porridge, yogurt and fresh fruit. Our suppers are healthy and filling, with 3 delicious courses designed to rejuvenate all those tired muscles.
The NONSTOP shuttle bus will pick you up from the lodge after breakfast to take you to the mountain for another day on the slopes. At the end of the day it will be there to pick you up from the bottom of the lifts and take you home.
On the second course most of you will be staying in a fantastic local B&B run by local friends of ours who are great fun and will really help you get the true Fernie experience. Kirk is a pro-patroller on the mountain and Jenny has ski instructed for many years. Their B&B is one of Fernie’s finest heritage homes and has been lovingly refurbished to create a warm and homely place to stay. The breakfasts are fantastic; you’ll wake to the smell of freshly baked bread each morning and there are both hot and continental options available. Please contact us to find out about the available rooms.

Due to popular demand we are now running our 2-week snowboard camps in both Fernie and Whistler.
One of the highlights of the snowboard courses is a day cat-boarding. Similar to heli-boarding, but travelling up hill in ‘snow cats/piste bashers’, cat-boarding is the ultimate powder experience but at half the cost of heli-boarding. You’ll get about 8-9 runs in through the day and the trips up in the cat offer welcome rest breaks and a chance to share stories with your powder companions! This experience provides the perfect opportunity to test your newly developed skills in the untracked powder of the backcountry. (Although unadvised, if you are on a tighter budget you can forfeit the cat-skiing experience and save £150 off the course price).
In addition to your on-snow coaching we teach essential backcountry techniques including safe off-piste travel, avalanche awareness and search and rescue techniques. This optional one day course is an additional £40 and includes some indoor theory as well as tuition in the backcountry digging snow pits and becoming familiar with safety equipment. 
A comprehensive evening session covering board design and construction plus tuning and maintenance techniques including base preparation, edge sharpening and waxing.
