    Resort Municipality of Whistler

Built by a contractor for the Resort Municipality of Whistler, this trail travels through the undulating alpine of Mount Sproatt offering spectacular views of the entire Sea to Sky Corridor in every direction. This machine built trail starts just below the Canadian Wilderness Adventures cabin in the Callaghan valley and joins Into the Mystic half way to the Lord of the Squirrels intersection.

This is a sensitive alpine environment and users should respect the area and the trail. Please avoid this area in times of prolonged wet weather, do not freeride off trail, pack your trash out with you, and always respect other users.

Access Info

Park just above the North Air Mine in the Callaghan Valley and climb up the access road.

Disclaimer

NO E-BIKES, NO DOGS IN THE ALPINE.
