Invermere-Panorama

📣 Calling all trail runners 🌲🏃‍♀️

The WILDness is back at Panorama Mountain Resort this June, bringing a weekend of alpine running, big climbs, ridgelines, forests, and enough elevation to keep things interesting. Choose one day or take on the full two-day challenge and see how wild you’re feeling.

Set in the Purcell Mountains, this one is for the runners who look at a mountain and think, “I wonder if there’s a trail up there.”

Need an easy family day in the Columbia Valley? ☀️🏖️

James Chabot Provincial Park checks a lot of boxes. Pack a picnic, spend the afternoon at the beach, let the kids loose on the playground, stroll the boardwalk, or bring a paddleboard and get out on the water.

With sandy shores, mountain views, open green space, and plenty of room to play, the whole family will want to stay for the entire day!

How to stay bear aware while recreating in the Columbia Valley🐻

Seeing wildlife is part of what makes time spent in the mountains so special, but it also comes with a responsibility to help keep animals like bears wild and safe. Whether you're hiking, biking, sightseeing, or staying in the village, a few simple habits can make a big difference.

🐻Watch for bear signs like s**t, tracks and claw marks
🐻Avoid sneaking up on bears by talking and hiking in groups
🐻Be aware of surroundings and don't wear headphones
🐻Keep pets leashed and under control
🐻Keep food secured
🐻Pack out what you pack in
🐻Carry bear spray while hiking and be able to access it quickly
🐻Take bear safety training with organizations like WildSafeBC (It's FREE)

It is important that everyone recreating in the mountains does their part.

Give wildlife plenty of space, and stay aware of your surroundings while exploring. Let's do our part to help keep both people and bears safe this summer.
