This is one of the classic multi-day split board traverses in the Coast Mountains of BC. With its high mountain passes, breathtaking glaciers and daily descents it’s hard to believe that Whistler village is never more than 10 kilometres away. Don’t be fooled though, the spearhead traverse offers huge terrain where you can choose to either push your limits skiing steep alpine lines or take a more mellow approach. Regardless of your skill or style, you will not be disappointed. Over the course of three days, starting from the summit of Blackcomb mountain, you will travel your way through the alpine taking in the stunning views this traverse is known for. On the third day you will arrive back at the Whistler resort and with the knowledge and experience of our split guide crew you will even make it back in time for a well deserved après in the heart of the Whistler village.
