The ultimate snowsports adventure is now possible this winter as you travel along Canada's 'Powder Highway' in true North American style, experiencing some of the very best resorts in the Rocky Mountains.

'Storm Chaser' is a multi-resort road trip, based in a 'Big Rig' mobile platform that features comfortable living, dining and bathroom facilities in your very own luxury moving cabin.The 530 mile looping route has one of the world's highest densities of ski activity operations along the way and eight destinations offering oodles of in-resort and backcountry skiing.

You'll get to ski resorts like Fernie, Kicking Horse, Revelstoke, White Water, Panorama and Lake Louise - exactly where you go during your trip is based on where the snow is best.

All your snow riding is in the company of qualified ACMG (Association of Canadian Mountain Guides) guides that are highly experienced in the local backcountry terrain. Although it's definitely not for beginners, you don't have to be a skiing rock star to take advantage of the Powder Highway, as Kicking Horse Powder Tours owner Richard Barker explains. 'You just need to be a strong intermediate level skier or snowboarder with good powder experience and a twinkle in your eye'. 

'The sense of adventure is what makes this trip so special and unique' says Scott Belton of Adrenalin Descents, creator of the 'Storm Chaser' concept and the guide leading the skiers and snowboarders in the backcountry terrain for the tours. 'This trip will guarantee the best powder conditions in BC with great all inclusive value. We pick you up, drive you to where the snow is best, feed you, accommodate you and then, most importantly, guide you around the best backcountry lines available', says Scott.
