This is the mountain village of Whistler, 675m above sea level.
Forested with old growth fir and cedar.
An important black bear habitat.
Criss-crossed by deep valleys making way to endless glaciers.
There are few paved roads but instead many miles of intersecting logging roads and dirt trails.
It is an El Nino year.
A difficult task, travelling the unchartered terrain, requires the groups combined wits.
Only persistence and a spot of luck will reward success.
The adventure begins in the mountain village they call home but foreign lands beckon.
A journey awaits and a feeling desired.
We follow this group, through trials and triumph, Seeking Nirvana.
