Manager's Message

Area Manager, CMH Adamants: Konrad Scheiber In 1997, I first experienced the magic of the Adamants. I surrounded by beautiful snow covered peaks of the Adamant range, spending my working days skiing through deep powder, trees, over glaciers, steep slopes and long easy-going runs, and all with great company! The Adamant Lodge is known for the variety of terrain available. We invite you to the Adamants: Experience the magic for yourself!

CMH Adamant Lodge

Small Group Heli-Skiing ALL SEASON LONG!

New for 2012/13: Transportation to the Adamants is by motorcoach from Calgary to Golden and then helicopter from Golden to the lodge.

30 skiers (6 groups of 5 skiers each with two helicopters) have the Adamants exclusively, with lots of opportunities for 5-7 day trips throughout the season.

Located 350 kilometres west of Banff, Adamant Lodge is situated at the confluence of four major alpine valleys. The Adamants is famed for classic tree skiing and huge, open glacier terrain await Adamants skiers. The challenging access to these mountains ensures that our abundant terrain remains untouched by all but CMH guides and guests.

Additional Information - About the Lodge

Adamant Lodge is located near the head of the Goldstream River in the heart of some of the most rugged mountains in North America. When it opened in 1990, it was the most luxurious of the CMH lodges and set the standard for future development, but like the other CMH areas, the lodge is dramatically overshadowed by the surrounding mountains.

When the snow melts off the vertical walls that form a surreal backdrop to the ski season, the summer season in the Adamants demonstrates perfectly why the helicopter is the ideal tool for modern mountain exploration. The cliffs virtually enclose some valleys like the walls of a castle.

On the eastern edge of the Adamants tenure, the Fairy Meadows hut serves as a base for skiers and climbers, but the sheer walls to the west keep even the most adventurous climbers and skiers out of the heart of the CMH Adamants terrain.
