SimonOxley Does anyone have experience of the possibilities for day tours from the Elfin Lakes hut in British Columbia? We have a family ski trip to Whistler in Feb and I'd like to tack on a 2-3 day tour in that vicinity. Thanks, Simon OwenDay Backcountry Canada has a bit of beta here http://backcountryskiingcanada.com/Elfin%20Lakes Try plan your trip on a weekday it'll be a lot quiter as the weekend warriors swarm the huts on the weekends. Another alternative is Keith Hut up towards Duffey Lake, great terrain, glaciated and tree skiing.
