I recently spent 4 days in the Purcell’s with some family and Chris and it was an adventure we will remember our whole lives! From the gear check the night before the trip to unpacking on the last day, Chris was nothing but positive, upbeat, professional, and just an overall amazing guy to be around! Chris is incredibly knowledgeable about the mountains and everything that goes into backcountry alpine hikes. Chris was super attentive to our needs and was quick to prevent dehydration and low energy in the group. He made fresh meals and was a huge advocate of locally sourced products, which we loved! Chris always made us feel like we were in good hands. We rented gear from Chris and it was all clean, in amazing shape, and high quality. We will be reaching out to Chris for all our future adventures in BC!

In August we completed a 4 day backpacking trip with Chris, North of Invermere in the Purcell Mountains. It was an incredible experience. Having Chris as our guide allowed us to completely focus on the beauty around us and enjoy the experience. The food was great! Locally sourced, fresh, healthy and filling! (The charcuterie he packed was to die for!) He changed my mind about only using dehydrated meals while backpacking. We rented a tent, sleeping pad and bag from Chris. All of the gear he provided was high quality and in great shape. He was attentive to each group member’s needs throughout the hike and an awesome ambassador of the outdoors, educating us on different flora, fauna and the mountains while we hiked. Overall it was an unforgettable experience thanks to Chris and Playwest.

Visiting the area, and Canada, for the first time we were keen to get out and explore all the countryside had to offer, learning as much as we could at the same time. Play West, and Chris in particular, provided us with the perfect opportunity to do this and exceeded all of our expectations. Regular and informative communication in advance of our hike became a warm and friendly welcome from Chris on the day. The days it’s was ‘massive’ success, Chris is incredibly knowledgeable and we would highly him and PlayWest to anyone looking for a great active day. Thank you Chris, we had a great time!
