Brian Jones

Whistler is a must if you want to discover the best skiing in Canada. This world renowned resort in the beautiful Coast Mountains is perfect for one or more days of backcountry skiing. 

The extremely varied terrain ensures that there are options for all tastes and levels. And the snowy environment in this Canadian destination is truly stunning, so you will enjoy the views as well as the runs!

We will skin up, enjoying the wonderful surroundings, and then I will guide you down the best slopes in each area: from short classics like the DOA and the Husume to long traverses like the Spearhead.

We will spend a typical backcountry ski day leaving our marks on the glaciers and in the backcountry of the Garibaldi Provincial Park, right next to the resort. The skiing days usually end around 4PM, but in the late winter or spring we can arrange to make longer day tours.

No prior backcountry ski experience is needed, but you do need to be in good physical shape to join. I will decide the exact itinerary depending on the level of the group and the weather conditions.

Tempted to explore Whistler backcountry on your skis? Then please request to book this trip and let's start the adventure!

Backcountry skiing in Whistler Blackcomb, BC

Lying to the east of the Sea to Sky Highway, the stunning Garibaldi Provincial Park nestles between the world-class ski towns of Squamish and Whistler.

We begin the traverse at the trailhead to the Elfin Lakes and the Paul Ridge region. The trailhead is 30 minutes away from Squamish following a gravel road.

Our direction turns northwards as we continue towards the Rubble Creek trailhead, close to Daisy Lake. This region is just south of Whistler.

We will experience the glaciers of the Neve, towards beautiful alpine passes. We’ll ascend slowly until we find ourselves underneath the north face of Mount Garibaldi. From here we have an exhilarating ski descent to our camp at the Glacier Pikes.

We’ll reach the peak of our trip with a long and stunning descent down the north facing Sentinel Glacier.

Because this ski tour involves a wide variety of snow conditions, as well as carrying packs, potential participants are expected to be able to ski comfortably in ungroomed conditions. Days are typically 8-hours long so a good fitness level is required.

3-day Ski tour traverse in Garibaldi Provincial Park, British Columbia

Experience the best skiing runs in the magnificent Garibaldi Park that are hidden from most skiers.

We’ll head towards the heart of the Spearheads, the arc-shaped range that links the mountains of Whistler and Blackcomb. The nearby mountains of Trorey, Pattison and Decker offer great untracked terrain to ascend and descend.

Heading towards the high mountain passes, we’ll cross glaciers, lakes and spectacular high ridges.

Sections of the range present good challenges for us, with steep descents into the Diavolo Glacier before climbing back up and over the Overlord Mountain, the highest peak of the Fitzsimmons Range. With a speedy descent we’ll ski out to Singing Pass, home to stunning views of the mountain ranges of Fitzsimmons and Spearhead.

Our projection leads us to our final destination of Whistler, one of the largest ski resorts in North America, and home to the 2010 Winter Olympics.

Potential participants on the 3-day ski tour must be comfortable skiing in any snow conditions. While there is no very steep nor technical slopes on the tour, the conditions will be un-groomed and thus unstable.

It’s important to remember that due to a number of variables (weather, route conditions, group level) the final itinerary for the 3 days may be adjusted.

3-day Spearhead Range ski tour traverse in British Columbia

Our guide was Tim Ross not Brian Jones. Day was great and Tim was very personal and taught us a lot about backcountry skiing. He tailored the day to our abilities and was very patient. Great experience.

Well experienced Guide ( Brian ), very nice trip in Garibaldi

We actually had a different guide (Les) but couldnt have been more impressed. He was super knowledgeable and helpful. Very patient and his timing for our day was excellent. Whistler is of course beautiful and it was a wonderful introduction to the back country. 


We had a good time and the guide we had was both professional and patient. Thanks

Our first trip and a great day.  Thank you Brian!
