I'm a local Canadian with many years experience leading trips to the Rocky Mountains and other destinations. I have been to 59 countries. I love to share amazing places with interesting people. I like being part of a small group of like minded travelers on, flexible, cost-effective, trips. I like to provide value for money, unique experiences, and time to do your own thing.

SPECIAL NOTICE At many wilderness locations there are no flush toilets and no running water. Outhouses (pit toilets) are common in remote locations. The first night will be in a rustic wilderness location so be prepared for limited facilities. The second night is at a modern facility in Lake Louise and has running water, showers, and flush toilets. Accommodation is dormitory style. At Beauty creek, the group will share one large dorm with multiple bunkbeds. Consider bringing earplugs and eye mask. Accommodation in Lake Louise is more comfortable with 4-6 beds per with indoor flush toilets.
