STANDUP PADDLEBOARDING THE GREAT BEAR RAINFOREST

This is a  journey of awareness, education and inspiration. The Great Bear Rainforest, located on the North Coast of B.C. is one of the most incredible ecosystems in the world. The Great Bear Rainforest contains 25% of the remaining intact temperate rainforest in the world. The area is highlighted by world class wildlife and First Nations Culture. Our exploratory trip here July 2009 on standup paddleboards was featured on the cover of the May 2010 issue of Explore Magazine. We are really excited to offer adventurous standup paddleboarders the opportunity to SUP in this amazing environment.

Norm Hann of Mountain Surf Adventures recently completed the Standup4GreatBear Expedition. This was a 400km first ever-standup paddleboard trip along the proposed oil tanker route from Kitimat to Bella Bella. This expedition brought awareness to the wildlife and traditional food harvesting areas of the coastal First Nations, showcasing what is at risk if oil tankers were to be allowed on the north coast. Norm has guided in this area for over ten years and knows the people and wildlife intimately. Join Norm on this personally guided SUP trip as he highlights this world-class destination and shows you an area at risk. SUP with salmon, paddle with whales, and search for the Spirit Bear. This is a unique, one of a kind expedition that will connect you, educate you and inspire you.
