  Visited last Winter for a planned single day heli-ski as an add on. Actually never got to heli-ski because of the poorly run reservation system and the disorganization at Wiegele; but I did spend a day in the lodge while my buddy was luckily added on to a chopper for what he described as mediocre heli-boarding. I wrote a long letter to Wiegele, hoping, at least for an apology for a two hour drive, their systems reservation failures, and a wasted ski day, but they never replied, or just as likely the reply got lost in their system. That attitude, or disorganization, fits with the general vibe we got starting with our arrival in the early am, at the appointed time, per their instructions, to the clueless, albeit friendly enough desk staff, and the mostly rude or uninterested guides we encountered while we tried to sort out our reservation. The lodge is bland as heli-ski lodges go, the place disorganized, the scenery not so good compared to most of B.C., the costs high, most of the guides unhelpful, and the heli-skiing certainly not top notch compared to other operators and locations I've experienced over 25 years of heli-skiing. They do have a nice, but expensive, ski and board shop on the premises which accounts for the two stars above zero.

  Does not treat snowmobilers well. Does not provide lodging if you're a snowmobiler

  I worked in house keeping for nearly 3 months and the all the staff seemed really nice at first but unfortunatley things turned around very quickly as the management were really toxic, minipulative and unprofessional as they treated majority of the house keeping department like numbers and animals, (mainly the supervisors).

  I have to agree with Cams post and say that the supervisors have been complete assholes to my daughter for nearly the whole three months well actually five days short of the 3 month probation period. My daughter and two more people I know of and good people too have had their employment cancelled on the spot for petty childish reasons like texting on their break time the colour of their hair and just for being AUSSIES. One of the supervisors without naming names actually called my daughter a C**T??? No words can I even describe for this unreasonable remark and I hope that supervisor gets the sack for speaking to employees like that. Anyways my daughter and her friends have been so upset as they have lost their jobs and have been left basically in the middle of the wilderness with no savings and nowhere to go. You people should be ashamed of how you treat your employees and I will be spreading the word about you and your big mouth because that’s my daughter you called a C**T!! It’s way more than a hop skip and a jump back to Australia and lucky for you I am that far away. For your sake her and her friends had better be safe and make it back home to Australia
