What are you signing up for !?
Alpine canyon trips are for those who have already been on a tour with us, so we know your skill level, or for experienced canyoners who are keen to explore the area with a guide. Please provide us with a resume of your outdoor experience so we can determine the most appropriate canyons for you. The Alpine trip is a step toward autonomy, or, if you’re already a canyoner, a way to experience new canyons you may not want to do on your own.

You need to possess excellent physical fitness and should have previous rope and/or swimming/swiftwater experience. You must be able to scramble, swim, and rappel on your own. The canyons we visit are not extreme, but the goal is for you to be completely involved in the descent, and potentially in higher level canyons than what you are used to.
We guide in a multitude of canyons that allow us to operate for most of the season. We usually plan the trip the day before, but ultimately decide in the morning what canyon we will run on the day. This decision will depend on the weather and canyon conditions of the day as well as your skills and expectations. If you want to descend a specific canyon, please let us know and we will try to accommodate.

Meeting location and itinerary
At David Thompson Resort, 15 minutes before the start time.
safety briefing
You will have a quick chat with your guide to discuss the tour progression, equipment and safety.
Hike up to the upper entrance of the canyon (usually between 30 and 90 minutes of hiking). May be a few hours for Alpine tours.
We descend the canyon (between 3 and 8 hours inside the canyon, depending on the tour and the size of the group). May be longer for Alpine tours.
At the bottom of the canyon route, we hike back to the car.
The meeting time and the end of the day can be arranged depending on your expectations, the size of the group, and the conditions of the canyon.
