The
Columbia Valley Hut Society is a non-profit organization established in
1980 by a small group of friends with a passion for the backcountry. Over
the past twenty years Society members have worked together with the BC
Forest Service to build and maintain five huts in remote locations in the
Northern Purcell Mountains. These huts offer
rustic, user-maintained accommodations and some of the most beautiful
scenery in Western Canada. Members of the
society are happy to share these huts with others who have a similar
commitment to the preservation of special mountain places. Hiking
distances into the huts will vary from one person to the next as well as
yearly as they are dependent on both route-finding expertise and road
conditions. It is a good idea to carry a topographical map of the area
for the hike in and some basic road clearing tools (chainsaw, shovel, towrope) for the drive to the trailhead.
