GUIDES & MAPS
Looking for a map or guidebook to help plan your next ski touring adventure?
The Backcountry Skiing Canada store has a great selection of not just maps, guides and books, but also t-shirts, stickers, videos and patches.
In addition to the Backcountry Skiing Canada West Kootenay Touring guide, Whistler & Area Ski Touring Guide, Lake Louise, Sunshine, Banff & Area Ski Touring Guide, Kootenay Pass, Rossland, Fernie and Whitewater Ski Resort Maps we also carry 16 additional guides, books and maps to get you the knowledge you need.
So have a look through our store and order up some maps and guides for your next adventure and be sure to leave enough time to get them shipped to you where ever you are in the world. Our complete shipping and refund policies are listed below.
Your order will ship general delivery via Canada Post and is not trackable. Orders typically ship within 1 to 2 days and should arrive as follows:
- Canadian orders will take approximately 1-2 weeks for delivery.
- US orders can take 2-3 weeks due to customs and their volume of work.
- Overseas orders can take from 4 - 8 weeks based on the destination as they are shipped via land and not air due to the prohibitive expense of that. Heavier weight orders outside of North America will ship by ground whereas smaller guides and single guide orders ship by air.
Refund Policy
Should your order be returned to us we will e-mail you to notify you, otherwise, it is on its way to you and there is no way for us to track your order or let you know the status of it—so be sure to order early to allow extra time for it to arrive. We do not issue refunds once orders have shipped out. Most orders arrive on time but there are exceptions and since the postal service is beyond our control we cannot take responsibility for any delays. Cancelled orders are subject to a $5/guide/map restocking fee.
Happy shopping and we hope you find the guides and maps useful. If you prefer your routes electronically and want access to over 300 routes across Canada then consider subscribing to our Routes section here.
