Last summer, the Spearhead Huts Society broke ground on the first of 3 modern alpine huts linking the Spearhead Traverse and creating a year round adventure that will rival the classic hut-to-hut experiences offered in the Alps. The Kees and Claire memorial hut is located at Russet Lake near the foot of the iconic Fissile Peak and is set to open in 2019. Each hut location will offer dramatic views and excellent recreation opportunities in both winter and summer. 

The second hut will be located at Mt Macbeth and plans are progressing all thanks to the generous donation and commitment from Vancouver philanthropists Brian Hill and Andrea Thomas Hill. As founder and CEO of Aritzia, Brian brings a wealth of knowledge to this project and has brought on designer Vincent Chan to collaborate on this special edition merchandise funding initiative. These pieces are a limited run and will be sure to become a collectors item in the years to come. 

We've posted images of the designs to ensure we print just the right amount of clothing so that every dollar is used to support the Spearhead Huts Society. We'll print the designs on high quality cotton garments and we are working with local print shops. With Vincent's talent and eye for style, you can be sure these pieces will make you look good while doing good! 

On behalf of the Spearhead Huts Society, thank you for your support. Please share this video and a link to the campaign so that we can achieve the funding goal and continue building a world class hut to hut experience in the Whistler Backcountry.
