Description

Discover the untracked white-blanket snow of Canada’s best backcountry snowboarding region as I guide you across the stunning slopes.

The town of Whistler offers a wide variety of terrain. In 2012 it hosted the Winter Olympic games, further cementing its international reputation.

Located in the British Columbia province, 125 kilometres north of Vancouver, the popular snowboarding destination is home to the famous Whistler Blackcomb ski resort.

It features the Peak 2 Peak Gondola, the world’s highest cable car, and travels 4.4 kilometres in 11 minutes. From here it offers stunning panoramas of mountain peaks, lakes, glaciers, and the bustling village below.

The cable car connects the important mountains of Whistler and Blackcomb, which have hosted numerous important alpine events.

During the snowboarding day we will enjoy the best tree snowboarding with deep powder snow, over glaciers and up summits in this stunning section of British Columbia.

Because of the wide variety of slopes available the area is open to everyone. So our program can be adopted to fit your level of ability and experience.

Reserve your place now for an incredible day snowboarding down Canada’s king of quality slopes in the resorts of Whistler and Blackcomb.

Mountain Guide

Based in the Coast Range, near Vancouver, BC, I offer custom private ski touring adventures for any size of group. I can craft an experience suitable for your experience levels and goals. From single day introductory tours in the Whistler/Blackcomb backcountry, to multi-day tent-based traverses, to heli accessed ski mountaineering base camps, let me create the trip of a lifetime for you!

I have guided extensively throughout the mountain ranges of British Columbia and Alberta, for numerous heli, snowcat and ski touring operations.

I also work closely with a number of backcountry ski touring lodges across BC, including Whitecap Alpine. I can facilitate your lodge-based trip, including scheduling, logistics, transport, food and guiding (of course). There’s really nothing quite like a lodge ski trip with your closest friends, a great chef and plenty of powder to ski.

Thank you explore-share for a wonderful via feratta experience. We have been wanting to learn for a long time but don't have the facilities in Scotland. The guide Mitja was extremely helpful and knowledgeable, answering all my many questions and providing advice. On the day head to take another group but he quickly arranged another guide Borut, who was brilliant. We had a fantastic morning learning via ferrata at Hvadnik in the gorge. It gave us the confidence to later hire our own equipment and go out in Mojstrana. Altogether a five star + experience. Thank you.
