Our guide was extremely knowledgeable regards backcountry in Whistler/Blackcomb. Until this trip I wasn’t aware of many additional points to be considered to entry to backcountry. It was very good trip and I will definitely do it again.

Our guide (Chris Lawrence) was knowledgeable, friendly, safety conscious and very helpful. WAG is a very experienced and professional service. I had a great day and would recommend them and Chris to any skier interested in the backcountry. Dan

This was our first off piste powder tour a fantastic experience. It was a trip that we will never forget, especially because we have been looking forward to this trip for so many years. The guide was very experienced and friendly. The weather, snow and view was stunning. Would definately like to try this out once more.

Hi, I would like to thank Chris for a really fantastic day out. The weather was pretty poor with huge dumps of snow and mega high avalanche risk. Not the best conditions for a typical ski tour. However, as a keen climber and mountaineer I was excited to learn as much as I could from Chris about assessing avalanche potential... More

Love Whistler Alpine Guides. I used to rock climb as a teenager and hadn't been in years. My rock climbing experience with them was great! I know Squamish is a popular rock climbing area - and I felt comfortable with my guide (as a newbie again) and had a blast!

I know the resort of Whistler very well, having skiied there for almost 20 years, but this was my first time getting up close and personal with the chunk of rock that actually forms Whistler Mountain. It was a truly amazing, empowering experience. And, at 65 and having travelled extensively, it was wonderful to have the experience of a lifetime... More
