The Terrace/Kitimat area affords all the outdoor activities one can imagine. The area is renowned for its world-class fishing, and our local ski hill, Shames Mountain, is highly acclaimed for its phenomenal powder. The Kitlope is a region of wild and pristine natural beauty, and the Pacific Ocean is just a short drive away. With so many outdoor opportunities available and minimal crowds, this area is truly the hidden gem of B.C., often referred to as "The Squamish of the North".

Honesty, teamwork and respect are some of our guiding principals. We strive for ongoing learning and quality care.
