Beyond the hectic ski area of Lake Louise and over two passes lies Skoki Lodge, the first backcountry ski lodge built in western Canada. This book tells the story of Skoki, introducing us to the colourful characters who built, managed and visited the lodge since the 1930s. Meet an English aristocrat with ambitious dreams, a German baroness seeking the simple life, earthy cowboys and ski enthusiasts. Today, Skoki still offers enticing ski slopes, tranquil beauty and simple living to its guests.
