With the sun setting on warmer weather and as the snow starts to fall in the mountains, here’s a few short and sweet little missions in the Whistler area that we enjoyed this summer for your bucket list next year! Honestly, that was just a few – we can’t give away all of our spots, but…

i’m a jerk | breaking free & being sentimental
Perhaps I’m just overly sentimental, but when I take a few minutes to scroll through old photos online, I can’t help but be flooded with memories and thoughts about each of those sweet, special moments. I have a different feeling about each one of them… maybe it’s remembering an exact feeling or moment that made…
the blues, greens and microbialites of Marble Canyon in British Columbia
We were at Birkenhead Lake on one of the (hard-to-come-by) summer days we’ve had, and a man and his son pulled up to the dock with an interesting sail boat. It caught our eye and so we started chatting. After sharing about spots we loved in B.C, I asked him what his favourite place was,…
cliff jumping in Lions Bay, in British Columbia’s Sea-to-Sky corridor
The common thought this Summer – “is it really July? I could have sworn it’s January.” We had an epic winter – amazing snow and weather, and now we’re mid-July wondering if we’re going to see any of those sparkly summer days we all fell in love in Whistler. But until we do, we’re making…
Making the most of the world famous Whistler Bike Park
I have fallen in love. With a person. With a place. With a hobby. First, the person. He caught my eye, captured my heart and swept me away. He brought me to a place (Whistler) where I reclaimed my passion for wilderness, outdoors and exploration. This is the place where I discovered how much I…
ATV exploring and horseback riding with Whistler’s Canadian Wilderness Adventures
Okay, so I always share about my emventure experiences of finding hidden spots, or camping in the back of our SUV down some back road, but the truth is – there are a LOT of amazing tourist opportunities right here in Whistler for people coming to visit our home for a short period of time….
A Gaper Day at Whistler Blackcomb with the Big Love Ball
This was my very first Gaper Day, and I wanted it to be awesome. So naturally, I hired my incredibly inspiring friend @miraecampbell to create a video for our @GoWhistler social media channels, and boy oh boy, did she ever come through. View this post on Instagram That's all, folks. Gaper Day 2016! Another season…
the best lakes and rivers to explore in Whistler, British Columbia
Sure, Whistler is known for it’s iconic ski hill and winter vibes, but let me tell you – summer is where it is AT. There’s a short shoulder season between Winter and summer that runs through April and May – and it’s really neat because there’s still skiing available in the alpine, but the lakes…
British Columbia’s Sunshine Coast and a slower pace of life
It’s not a far jaunt from Whistler to the Sunshine Coast, but when you’re there, you feel like you’re a world away. The pace of life resembles Island life, and sure – you take a ferry to get there, but you’re actually not on an island at all… You’re just on a secluded section on…
Canada’s most northern winery: Fort Berens in Lillooet, British Columbia
It was a dismal weekend forecast. A 95% chance of a LOT of rain. When you work during the week, and you have a list of epic places you want to go and weekend activities that require their fair share of sunshine, a less-than-ideal forecast can put a severe damper on one’s outlook. Not me….
Pacific North-West vibes: A weekend road trip in Oregon
Once in a while I get this itch to go somewhere. Not in a week from that moment, not in a month, but right then. It seems completely irrational because I live in the greatest place ever – but I love the feeling of being on a highway, the sun going down and waking up…
living in Whistler: activities for weekend warriors
You’ve got to love living in a place where you can roll out of bed, stumble your way to the front door and drive a quick few minutes to the base of a world class mountain. Lucky for me, this is how I get to start most of my weekends in winter. The great thing…
