I love Fernie. Fernie’s picturesque historic downtown set in middle of the mountains significantly enhances the vacation vibes. I had a chance to share Fernie with my oldest daughter recently and wrote up a whole guide including activities to do, where to stay, and 3-day and 5-day itineraries in the post “Best Things To Do…
Fernie, BC holds a special place in my heart. I have experienced memorable moments and unforgettable firsts in this charming mountain town. Tucked in British Columbia next to the Alberta border, Fernie is where I learned to ski when I was 5 years old, where I learned to snowboard when I was 12 years old,…
The West Coast Trail, located on the traditional territory of the Huu-ay-aht, Ditidaht, and Pacheedaht First Nations, is one of Canada’s most challenging hiking trails. Ladders a few stories high to climb, tide tables to manage, roots that will twist your ankle, and boulders as large as vans to scale. It also is one of…
The experience of mountain biking last year across Northern and Central Idaho has left a permanent dent into my being. After leaving such a good impression, I had to say yes to exploring the mountain biking and family activities at Grand Targhee which is located in Wyoming but only accessible from Idaho. It was epic…
Our family has been big on adventure since forever. We love that the adventures bring us closer together and that they push us in some way physically and mentally. Recently, a solo mama trip took me to the Riviera Maya to check out two adventure parks for families called Xplor and Xavage. Both adventure parks…
Nestled in the state of #Wydaho, Grand Targhee Resort is a base camp for adventurers of all abilities near the Grand Tetons. While the state of Wydaho does not actually exist, locals created the term to describe the epic playground in Wyoming that is only accessible from the state of Idaho.
I am so excited! I finally am sharing some of our favourite family adventure vacations that we discovered on our 3-month van trip. Our kids may have been little at age 3 and 5 but they still mention the people they met and the areas we explored. It seems surreal that we discovered such incredible…
Living the van life has been a dream come true and 3 months on the road has been the perfect way to explore new places. We have experienced jaw dropping sunsets, tarantulas meandering by our cook stove in the dessert and aw-inspiring landscapes. It truly has been incredible but weeks without a hot shower had…
Riding the Hiawatha trail was an unforgettable experience. As a family we soaked up the fall coloured views and whooped through all 10 of the train tunnels. The 7 Trestles (train bridges) provided an incredible view of the valley. A view that we obviously had to stop on and take a family picture. The small…
There are some places in Canada that are completely magical. They are not only a local’s favourite area to adventure but also an iconic place for tourists to explore. Sunshine Village is one of these vacation spots and finds itself on many traveler’s bucket lists. Our family recently spent the weekend at Sunshine Village Mountain…
