We are excited to launch the Snowshuttle program this year with the addition of our new snowcat. The new cat features a larger cabin which can accommodate up to 15 passengers all while staying comfortably heated and enjoying the panoramic views on the drive up to Callaghan Lake.⁠

From the lake you can enjoy both high elevation Nordic skiing and impressive access some of the best untracked backcountry skiing around. 

The shuttle will run 2 trips in the morning; one at 8:00am and another at 11:00am.
The cat will also be available for 1 trip down from the lake leaving at 3:00pm.

Go for it! The first event is this Sunday... Advanced registration is required; this allows us to place an appropriate food order before the event. Registration closes at 50 participants. The event cost is $10 per person for registered participants + Ski Callaghan Admissions (trail ticket fee or season pass)

Call us at 604.964.0058 or email us at info@callaghancountry.com to register.

A hot chili lunch (both meat and veggie) will be served up at Journeyman Lodge from 12pm – 2pm. Event Participants are welcome to use our traditional woodfired sauna, but will need to bring their own towels.

​As a society, we have never been more time-starved and over-stimulated so the need to slow down, unplug and reconnect is more important than ever. Throw in an ever-looming threat of climate change and it only makes sense that more and more backcountry enthusiasts are opting to “Earn their turns” and overall self-propelled recreation is on the rise.  We ache for freedom, and the wilderness calls.

Callaghan Country's Journeyman Lodge was built on sweat equity and a belief in the inherent value of exploring the world beyond lift dependency. There are no free rides to the top and no one to hand-hold you through another cookie-cutter backcountry experience. In these mountains, you’re on your own, and you’re better off because of it.  An infamous Eleanor Roosevelt quote resonates..."With freedom comes responsibility."  Wilderness exploration does require certain capacities and skill sets. We're excited to announce that Callaghan Country has some early season Skills Clinics to build that toolkit!

We highly recommend attending one of the upcoming Ski Swaps.  Not only will you find deals on gear, this is typically a great opportunity for local clubs to feature their programs and courses as well...​

Cross-country skiing isn’t just for humans. Dogs love it too. With strong back legs for skis, their own built-in ski poles (…a.k.a front legs) and oodles of energy, dogs are the perfect skiing machines. Let your furry friend lead the way through Ski Callaghan’s 20+km of dog-friendly trails, with on-leash and off-leash options to suit all variety of puppy personalities. Your pooch will be thankful for the exercise, endless stimulation, and interaction with other adventure pups.

Before you hit the trails, here are a few things you should know:

The fashion-conscious canine need not worry, they too can strut their stuff in an oh-so-stylish ski outfit, just like Crusoe the Weiner Dog. Just be sure to get permission from your hound-pup before adorning them in ugly-christmas-sweater style outfits and giant goggles; a recent survey conducted amongst the Ski Callaghan puppy population shows a skew toward a preference to let their fur flow au-naturel.​

Here's our Thanksgiving Ode from, Karen, one of Callaghan Country's biggest fans on cross country skis.  It's her 12 Months of Callaghan Country pictorial that she's gathered over her multiple seasons of fan-hood.  There's plenty to be thankful for; let's start with October...
