Heli Hiking, River Cruising and Lake Touring
The picture-perfect Lodge fits harmoniously into 300 private acres of bench land overlooking the Peace Reach of Williston Lake. Our southern exposure provides magnificent views of the lake and the Canadian Rocky Mountains at an elevation of 729m. The closest city to the lodge is Fort St. John, 1.5 hours (110 km). The historic town of Hudson's Hope is only 25 minutes away. Exceptional service, great dining, good company and breathtaking scenery are the hallmarks of this facility. The main lodge features eight guest suites with private bath and a satellite internet connection. The common areas include the dining room and lounge with fireplace.
We are so fortunate to be a small part of a place called the Serengeti of the North (also known as the Northern Rockies of BC). It is one of the most significant wilderness areas in North America. The wildlife populations are unparalleled in British Columbia - including mountain caribou, elk, moose and Stone Sheep. The area, some 6.3 million hectares, supports black and grizzly bears, as well as coyotes, wolves, wolverines and cougars. At the heart of the Northern Rockies ecosystem is 50 interconnected, unroaded and undeveloped watersheds. The mountains and boreal plains it encompasses form a globally significant wilderness ecosystem, of incredible magnitude and beauty, and is as pristine as one can find in this day and age.
Our summer programs are designed with a truly Canadian experience in mind. Your guided adventures and tours of the area include access by helicopter and boat into the magnificent wilderness. In this way we can leave "without a trace". Each day your friendly, professionally trained guides will help you discover a part of this wilderness through activities that can be accommodated to suit all abilities, experience and energy levels. Heli-hiking is one of the best ways to enjoy the best that the Canadian wilderness has to offer.
Helicopters take you quickly to the best of the hiking terrain we have to offer. After you've satisfied you personal appetite for adventure and excitement you return each night to your luxury accommodations and cuisine. Enjoy an evening of great music, the finest of beverages, and a stroll on the wrap-around deck for a soak in the outdoor hot tub under the Northern Lights. Guests have the option to drive or fly to the lodge. |

After your transfer from Fort St John (or arrival by car from other points) you will be greeted at the Lodge. It is our aim to make this your special week of personalized adventure and mountain activities. The invigorating, clean, mountain air is free. This holiday is not written in stone. We will provide you with personalized versions of each activity. Groups consist of four guests and one guide, therefore the pace at which we pursue our outdoor adventure goals can be modified to suit you. It is our goal to exceed your vacation expectations. The adventures that we undertake are unique to this area. Wildlife will be viewed on each outing, and we may see many different large mammals on any one day including bears. Heli-hiking takes you to areas of unique natural and human history, including the karst cave formations, alpine lakes and meadows, ridge and mountaintops, fossil beds, and mineral spring ponds. Your knowledgeable guide will share tidbits on the local ecology and biology, all the while ensuring your comfort and safety.
