Looking to the high mountain slopes, you might also see a Grizzly Bear or Mountain Goat. Traversing through a variety of temperate zones, the rider will experience West Coast moderate vegetation including Rhododendron and Devils Club, West Coast Rainforest, followed by Alpine vegetation including Pine, Fir and Spruce. The trail, which up until mid-June can hold knee high snow and avalanche prone sections in the higher elevations, does become ride worthy by early July up until October. The lower elevations at the beginning afford short rides out of the Whitworth Base Camp up until December and as early as mid-April. Inexperienced riders are offered a variation of the circuit making this an experience available to all.
Meals are West Coast fare including everything from trout and salmon to steak.
Campfire evenings, propane heated shower tents, spacious sleeping tents with queen sized inflatable mattresses and turf carpeting in the interiors, along with comfortable toilets describe the conveniences at Base Camp in Paradise Valley. Trail camps are lightweight dome tents and foamies. For more information about our Canadian adventure, please fill out the Information Request Form or Contact Us directly.
