Tree climb Tree Climb
This thing must be seen to be believed. This once-pine tree is now our newest attraction; and is by far the most innovative climbing structure around. We have trimmed the excess branches off this 75 foot tree and, with the proper climbing gear, it is perfect for climbing. From the top you can see the NOC and the surrounding area; as we said... it must be seen to be believed! The tree climb is best suited for those with some climbing experience.

Kick Sled
Also known as "CrosSled", these wonderful little toys are a "Cros" between a dogsled and a toboggan! This unique activity is challenging and fun for people of all ages. From basic kick-sled trips through the NOC to guided kick-sled adventure tours in the Nor'Wester Mountain Range and surrounding area, you are sure to have a blast with our fleet of kick-sleds. Half-day, full-day or overnight guided trips are also available.

There is nothing quite like snowshoeing; come see what it is like to float atop the snow on our network of trails, or develop your own trail and go exploring! Programs available for the beginner or advanced snowshoer; call us for more information.

Rock / Ice Climbing School
We offer courses for all rock and ice climbing skill levels. For the non-climber, start out with the basics on our climbing wall, perhaps move onto the tree climb and ultimately onto a rock face or icy cliff. However, learning the proper and safe method of climbing, as well as building your own confidence, takes time. All your safety gear is provided for you for your climbs. Call us today for more information on rock (and ice) climbing.
