Skiing and BoardingCMH Purcell’s backyard is endless: with more than 250 runs and over 200,000 hectares of new-to-CMH backcountry tenure to experience, you’re gonna want to create a new bucket list. Make sure it includes wide open glaciers, high alpine bowls, gladed subalpine forest, and some of the best tree skiing around. When we welcomed Purcell in 2021, we added nearly half a million acres of backcountry tenure to more than 3 million acres of existing CMH terrain. The landscape here boasts a wide variety of skiing and riding options, as it spans both the Purcell and Selkirk mountain ranges. The Purcells provide a mix of high elevation alpine glaciers and bowls with gladed tree skiing below. The Selkirk area also has a mix of big alpine glaciers and open bowls leading to excellent, naturally burnt tree skiing. Some of the highlights include runs in the Caribou, McMurdo, Duncan, Canyon, Spillimacheen, International Basin and Baird drainages. From newbies to longtime CMHers looking for something new, CMH Purcell is an exciting new menu item to satisfy your heli-skiing appetite.
