Not at all (meeting english speaking people). Depending on what time of year you are there really depends on who you will run into. During the summer for example you will run into a lot more americans and canadians while in the winter you tend to see a lot more aussies and kiwis. I have never had any trouble meeting people AT ALL, the only place where I didn't meet ANY english/spanish speakers at ALL was in Dresden, Germany and in Krakow, Poland. But I wasn't even in those cities that long and I wasn't staying at "backpackers" hostels, so it wasn't a real social enviorment. At the treehouse EVERYONE who works tehre speaks english, although it isn't a huge staff so you'll see the same couple people everyday.
There is no way you will run out of things to do at the TreeHouse, especially if the place is full, because there will be tons of peole to meet and tons to do. Keep in mind, though, it is in the middle of nowhere, so all the activities there are to do you have to pay for. The hostel doesn't lead these extreme hikes or glacier climbing or bungee jumping, they're extra activities (so worth it) but you do have to pay out of pocket for those things. Same with the snowboarding. The hostel has snowsuits and such that you can borrow, but the actual snowboarding is a place you walk to up in the hills and is an actual facitily, so you have to pay for teh board, lift tickets, etc.
