Kokanee Glacier Cabin Ski Week Lottery

Built 2002

Kokanee Glacier Cabin is easily our most well equipped hut with running water, flush toilets, showers, and electricity. Sitting mostly above 1,800 metres in elevation, the park has three glaciers – Kokanee, Caribou, and Woodbury – which feed over 30 lakes and are the headwaters of many creeks.
ACC huts in BC Provincial Parks (Kokanee Glacier Cabin, Conrad Kain Hut, Elk Lakes Cabin, Silver Spray Cabin, Woodbury Cabin) may be booked by ACC members and non-members up to six months in advance.

Kokanee Ski Weeks

Ski weeks at Kokanee are very popular and are reserved by lottery. Travelling in the Kokanee Glacier Park backcountry area in the winter is recommended only for advanced-intermediate and expert skiers with backcountry experience.
Rates include the whole hut booking, including return flights, 7 nights accommodation (Saturday travel days), and taxes. Travel days are Saturdays with departures from Nelson, BC. The Maximum hut capacity of Kokanee Glacier Cabin is 15.
The maximum weight for all items (other than people) is 100lbs per person. All baggage will be weighed and your group may be asked to leave gear behind if your group is over the weight limit. Your group will be charged for additional helicopter flights that are required due to excessive weight or bulk.
It is not permitted to operate an advertised commercial venture within Kokanee Glacier Provincial Park. Individuals may hire professional guides for their trips, but guides may not book and resell places at the hut.

We appreciate that the lands known today as Canada are home to the enduring presence of all First Nations and Métis people, and the Inuit and we acknowledge the past, present, and future generations of these Nations who continue to lead us in stewarding this land, as well as honour their knowledge and cultural ties to this place. The Alpine Club of Canada’s head office is located in the traditional lands of Treaty 7, which is comprised of the Stoney Nakoda Nations of Wesley, Chiniki, and Bearspaw; three Nations of the Blackfoot Confederacy: the Piikani, Kainai, and Siksika; the Mountain Cree; and the Tsuu T’ina of the Dene people. This territory is also shared with the Métis Nation of Alberta, Region III. Before the signing of Treaty 7, and prior to the establishment of provincial boundaries, this region was also used by the Ktunaxa and the Maskwacis people.
