Bobbie Burns is one of the only lodges that accesses skiing in both the Purcell and Selkirk Mountains. Suitable only for physically fit, well-experienced skiers who enjoy a faster pace, it offers a rich selection of runs in the trees and in high, glaciated terrain. Its 33 guests are divided into a maximum of 3 groups of 11 skiers each (normally we have 4 groups of 11), allowing us to fly further afield for more time on the slopes. The area’s many valleys enfold various micro-climates, allowing for good skiing in virtually all conditions. Bobbie Burns offers some of the finest Heli-Skiing anywhere in our mountains, which is another way of saying anywhere on earth.

Notable runs: Snow Ocean, Little Sister, Killer Whale


Bruce Howatt
Lodge Manager

Bruce has guided with CMH for over 20 years. A passionate mountain guy, who hails from the flat lands of Edmonton, Alberta, he passed his first guides course at the age of 19 eventually becoming a fully certified IFMGA mountain guide. Bruce is one of CMH's most accomplished climbers, having spent many years climbing extensively through Europe, North America, Australia, and New Zealand.

When not up at the Bobbie Burns, Bruce spends time with his two kids, Shep and Sara, who have inherited his passion for the mountains. He is also an avid B-boy and can be found in the fitness room working on the latest break dance moves.
