With over 40 years of experience guiding and outfitting in the Canadian Rockies, Western Adventures offers a truly one-of-a-kind backcountry experience. These mountains are our home. We’ve spent a lifetime exploring their hidden trails, secret waterfalls, and sweeping vistas. We know where wild horses roam, where eagles soar and where you just might catch a glimpse of bears or wolves.
