You will be introduced to a variety of skills such as operating a camping
stove, setting up your tents, and correctly packing your backpack. Additional
skill sessions will be taught throughout your adventures on such topics
as route finding and navigation, choosing a campsite, cooking, first aid,
hypothermia, and being lost and alone. While on your trip, you are encouraged
to bring a positive and unselfish attitude to the group. Our adventures
rely on your enthusiastic participation in all activities. Students who
excel at BC Extreme adventures are prepared for challenging activities
and are excited about learning. We do not tolerate the possession or use
of illegal drugs or alcohol. If a participant is found possessing the

immediately. In such event, no refunds will be granted.
BC Extreme offers rugged adventures in glitz-free resorts. Are you ready
for sailing around BC’s islands in a 73-foot ketch? Hiking glaciers, rock-climbing,
or mountain-biking some of the best terrain in the world? Lounging in
natural hot springs, camping by alpine lakes, whitewater rafting, and
much more?
We offer adventures for a range of time frames, budgets and activities.
Price: Did you know that Club Med started
the 'all inclusive' vacation back in 1950? BC Extreme offers the
same great value today in Canada. Everything's included - especially the
fun.
All Adventures are covered under one price. This includes three meals
per day, accommodation, transportation, equipment, and activities. Bring
your own sleeping bag and equipment if you wish. Prices start at $65.00

A variety of great adventures in BC’s vast fascinating natural settings
await you. The choice is yours: solitude on crystal clear lakes, or endorphin-releasing
experiences, challenging the elements. We offer all sorts of adventures
that suit your style. Here are just a few examples:
- Sailing: On board the legendary, 73-foot
ketch Graybeard, we will sail to several islands and fjords, surrounded
by forests, seals, fish, and whales. When the wind blows, this boat
really starts moving - all hands on deck. There will also be opportunities
for island hikes.
- Mountain: Pemberton/Whistler Valley offers
a great base for fascinating outdoor activities, including horseback
and mountain bike-riding; hikes to peaks, lakes and glaciers; swimming;
canoeing; and hot springs. Choose from two or more activity options
offered each day.
- Water: Explore the islands of the Howe
Sound by voyager canoe or in kayaks. Hike and climb peaks. Stay in desolate
camps with breath-taking views. Feel the rejuvenation of BC’s fresh
air.
- Cycling: Explore the Kettle Valley Railway,
one of BC Interior’s most beautiful valleys. Hike, swim and visit orchards
and vineyards. This is the life!
