Highlights

  • Ski along the wild and incredible Coast Mountains of Canada.
  • Head deeper into the remote mountainside and experience its isolation.
  • Witness the stunning slopes of he backcountry as we pass lakes and glaciers.

Description

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. 

Get in touch now to reserve your place in the incredible Canadian mountains on an actioned-packed 3-day ski tour traverse.

Climbing with guide Guillaume was absolutely a highlight of my 2-week Europe vacation. Originally, we were planning on climbing in the Calanques, but the park was closed due to wind and fire danger. Guillaume chose another amazing location (Pic de Bretagne) based on my climbing abilities and preferences and kindly offered train station pick-up and hotel drop off, which I appreciated very much. The multi-pitch route we did was not only fun but also the right amount of challenge, which I thoroughly enjoyed. The communication from the team (Gauthier) was prompt and clear—highly recommend!

Luis Silva was a great climbing guide and belayer! He taught me how to do moves that were difficult and encouraged me to try routes that were challenging for me! Because of his encouragement, I managed to complete these routes! I really enjoyed the climbs and completed 8 routes in the Sesimbra/Azoia area. The weather was perfect, no direct sun and cool enough to enjoy the climbs. Explore-Share made booking an outdoor climbing experience in Lisbon extremely easy. Luis, our guide, was fantastic, and the platform’s organization was flawless.

We had Léo as a guide for our day climb in Fonty. We were blessed with a knowledgeable, warm, and instructive guide. Communication with Léo and Ivan was smooth and swift. Explore-Share was excellent in arranging everything for our day climb. The communication was quick, and the platform was easy to use, making our adventure stress-free.

Patrick was a great guide. He took us on an intermediate Via Ferrata at Passo Sella. Renato was quick to respond with any outreach on the Explore-Share platform. The booking process was straightforward, and once Patrick was confirmed, all went well. It was a wonderful experience, and I’d highly recommend the platform.
