Snowshoeing Adventure

Snowshoeing Adventure

On this four-day snowshoeing trip we explore the vast area of meadows and mountains around the Fight Meadow Chalet. The terrain is very diverse ranging from flat sub-alpine meadows to steep slopes. The emphasis on this trip is education and exploration. Fight Meadow is a great place to practise winter route finding and avalanche awareness skills. As the days progress, you will too!

Day 1: Arrive in Clearwater via Vancouver or Kamloops. Overnight in Clearwater.

Day 2: Meet in Clearwater and drive to the heli-pad on Wells Gray Road for a fantastic flight to the Fight Meadow Chalet. After settling in, the guide will take you on a tour of the terrain behind the chalet where you will become familiar with the use of your avalanche transceivers and begin learning about present snow conditions.

Day 3: You will break trail south across Fight Meadows and climb up onto Fight Mountain and Cariboo Ridge to see incredible views into Stevens Lakes and Indian Valley. These places are seldom visited in the summer and in the winter the vast emptiness of the area is inspiring.

Day 4: Snowshoe up onto Battle Mountain to get a taste of steeper terrain and more open alpine country. The focus is on avalanche awareness which takes in snow conditions, weather, and route finding skills. Winter vistas on the top Battle Mountain is fantastic.

Day 5: Snowshoe out to the Wells Gray Park road. This is a six to seven hour snowshoe through an alpine meadow system and down the valley slope. The change in the forest from the plateau to the valley bottom makes the trip very interesting. Overnight Clearwater and soak in the whirlpool.

Day 6: Travel back to Kamloops or Vancouver.
