Even though it was the tail end of the season, we had a great time snowshoeing (our first time) on The Medicine Trail. We had a thoroughly knowledgable and enjoyable guide Melanie. It felt like being guided by an old friend (who just happened to know a lot more than we did!). The scenery was beautiful and learning about the... More

My guide was Melanie and she made the whole trip. She was friendly and very knowledgeable about the planets and animals in the area. I would recommend this trip with Melanie to anyone (great for both families and adults).

I have used snowmobiles for work for 15 years but my 17y old son wanted to try a snowmobile by himself so off we went. The instructions were clear and informative, and even though we had some first timmers in our group everybody picked up on the technique . Before long we were moving along at a good pace and... More

Visiting whistler for skiing. Started with snow shoeing yesterday. We were led by Jordan and had a great day learning about the plants, trees, animals and Whistler surroundings. Good stories and not too much talking to take away from the walk. Brisk pace through beautiful woods while entertained by the guide. For a ski guy who was skeptical, this was... More

Went out on the snow mobiles with Georgie. Had a great morning riding the Callaghan Valley. The instruction was clear, precise, enthusiastic and she was very knowledgeable about the area. When you are with a guide who is at ease and enjoys what they are doing it just rubs off!!

Took my two kids here for a 3 hour trip with guide Jamie. Although we had a couple of snails in our group, we found a way to have a blast. Jamie was super cool and knew we were being a little crazy, but she was a good sport. She controlled the group well, even handled a tip over without... More

We had a great time riding the dogsled! Upon arrival we were fitted with a helmet, boots and goggles prior to meeting our team of dogs. FYI, we arrived in late March so some snow had melted causing it to be muddy where we were dropped off at-so I would wear boots to this tour. There is an outhouse to... More

The snowcat is approx. 1 hour ride each way to a log cabin half way up mountain. It is comfortable and warm and they play music in the cab. You cannot see much if its dark, just what the lights on the snowcat shines on. It goes up the green rated ski runs and follows a zigzag track, nothing too... More

Had a great snowshoe hike in the Callahan valley with our guide Melanie. The tour was really informative about the trees and plants and the scenery was amazing!
