The Skoki Ski Lodge National Historic Site of Canada was built in 1930-31 in the Skoki Valley of Canada's Banff National Park. Built by local members of the Ski Club of the Canadian Rockies, the lodge was the first commercial building built specifically to serve skiers in Canada, and possibly in North America. Design and construction work was carried out by local outfitter and builder Earl Spencer with help from Spud White and Victor Kutschera. The lodge was progressively expanded through 1936 by outfitter, guide and log home builder Jim Boyce who was also managing the Lodge the time. It has remained unaltered since that time. The Lodge operates throughout the year.
Skoki Valley is a valley in Banff National Park in Alberta, Canada near the Town of Lake Louise. The valley is home to many lakes and passes such as Hidden Lake, Ptarmigan Lake and Deception Pass. The valley is popular among backcountry hikers, skiers and climbers because of its untouched snow and views. To accommodate skiers in the 1930s the Skoki Ski Lodge and Halfway Hut were built out of logs by local outfitters. The Red Deer Lakes which are the headwaters of the Red Deer River are located near the valley at the foot of Skoki Mountain.
Ptarmigan Lake is an alpine lake at the foot of Ptarmigan Peak. The main access to the lake is a hiking and skiing trail which begins near the Lake Louise Mountain Resort. The lake drains eastward into Baker Lake and then into Baker Creek, which flows into the Bow River. The Skoki Ski Lodge is located beyond the lake and over Deception Pass.
Deception Pass is a trail in Banff National Park Alberta, Canada. It is named so because it is deceiving in that it looks small but the end never seems to come into sight. It is used to access the Skoki Valley, The Red Deer Lakes, Skoki Mountain and many beautiful smaller alpine lakes. The pass is a challenge for the guests of the Skoki Ski Lodge. It is located between Fossil Mountain and Ptarmigan Peak.
