Assiniboine Lodge is North America’s first backcountry ski lodge, built in 1928. This Lodge is a peaceful mountain homestead, whose staff, owners and guests have spent years exploring the same trails and ski sloped under the iconic Mount Assiniboine - one of the most imposing peaks of the Rocky Mountains. The Lodge is actually run by the same family as Talus Lodge who know this remote area inside out and like Talus Lodge, is only accessible by helicopter or a 27km ski or hike.
