I have known Mike Wiegele since 1965. He looked after hundreds of university students from Manitoba who came out to Banff to ski during the mid to late 1960's. We had the time of our lives. He organized our introductions to the mountains, all our lessons, lift tickets, meals, evening entertainments. Not one detail was overlooked; not one student was... More

We stayed at this resort in July, 2012. Our family had traveled to this area before and knew that this was the place to stay. We were upgraded to luxury accommodations which were superb. Three bedrooms (2 with 2 doubles, 1 with 1 king) and a common living, dining and kitchen. Each of the bedrooms were spacious with a whirlpool... More

We stayed for just one night in this hotel in June. So, no helicopter skiing. The hotel is very nice. All the cottages are made out of wood and the resort looks maintained. We had a room with a steamshower and a bubblebath ( which was a bit small). The room was spacious, with a big flat screen tv. The... More

I didn' t know you could stay at this resort if you weren't heli skiing. Stayed on an overnight trip from Vancouver to Edmonton and it was really great! They have log chalets that have individual rooms with separate outside entrance & full bath. The rooms aren't super luxurious but are all you need. They have 2 double beds (would... More

I spent my 40th birthday here back in 2006. It's kinda in the middle of nowhere sorta near Jasper. The accomodation is beautiful and cosy. We managed to get a lodge all to ourselves. All the helicopters were booked solid so we were stuck to walking around on snowshoes which were provided for free - an there's plenty to see... More

I have been staying and skiing with Mike Wiegele a lot of years. The lodge, service etc. is very nice. But it is mostly about the mountains around Blue River. The Monashee and the Cariboo. The powder skiing in these mountains is fantastic. But you have to experience it by yourself. It is impossible to describe in words.

I went to the Mike Wiegele Resort for a week of heliskiing in February. I've skied for decades and I'm a pretty experienced skier who has been a lot of places. But no place beats Wiegele and the surrounding mountains. During the week I had the best skiing of my life so far. So I've already booked a trip next... More

We stayed here on our way from Vancouver to Edmonton. The room was huge, with a jacuzzi tub and steam shower. Really nice.
