Explore 7 Canadian ski destinations in 2 weeks

26th September 2007 Print
Snowboarding Canada Traditionally, a major challenge for skiers and snowboarders exploring Canada was negotiating the vast distances between breathtaking snow destinations. While the award winning coastal skiing in Whistler is a short ride from Vancouver, the high altitude fluffy powder of the Okanagan and Rockies is a considerable distance. Packing all of these unique regions into one trip posed a challenge even for the most determined traveler.

With this in mind, Moose Travel created the Big Kahuna travel package. Combining elements of the Coastal Mountains, the Central Interior and the Canadian Rockies, this 14-day experience gives the skier/snowboarder the chance to sample 7 world-class destinations at an affordable price.

Whistler/Blackcomb, Silverstar, Big White, Sunshine Village, Lake Louise, Kicking Horse and Fernie can all be checked off in the first winter adventure of its kind.

Consistent with all of the Moose Travel Network’s adventures- travelers stay in budget, hostel-style accommodations where the opportunity for socializing with other travelers from around the world proves to be one of the biggest draws. Beyond the world-class skiing and snowboarding is the chance to take on snowmobiling, dog-sledding, winter tubing, curling, ice skating and some legendary nightlife.

Combining winter adventures with budget accommodation has become a magic formula for Moose as bookings for winter tours have exploded in the last few seasons. Rob Sheridan, owner of Moose Travel Network, contends that, “10 years ago an amazing multi-resort trip like this would not have been financially viable for most people. Now the masses can take advantage and enjoy an all in one, chance of a lifetime experience”.

While traveling with Moose one will have the opportunity to spend time with like-minded travelers, ski where Olympians will compete in 2010, enjoy the benefits of door-to-door convenience and the bonus of enthusiastic and passionate Canadian guides – no wonder skiers/snowboarders are leaving with a big smile (and a goggle tan)!
