An affordable way to explore top Canadian ski destinations

2nd December 2008 Print
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 and being able to package all of these unique regions posed a challenge even for the most determined traveler. With this in mind the Big Kahuna tour was born!

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 a great 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.

As an upgrade to their summer tours Moose offers hotel accommodation upgrades while exploring this award winning destinations in addition to it’s very successful hostel-based trips. 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 lifetime experience”.

Citing the fact that while traveling with Moose- one will have the opportunity to spend time with like-minded travelers, enjoy the benefits of door-to-door convenience and the bonus of enthusiastic and passionate Canadian guides – skiers/snowboarders are leaving with a big smile (and a goggle tan).
