Spring is stunning in British Columbia’s Coast Mountains. Snow melts and flows down valleys, running along glaciers and collecting in stunning turquoise lakes.

Paddle your way along the course of this ephemeral melt in a kayak, moving through a landscape of rugged giants, following streams of blue water flowing over white snow. Navigate through floating blocks of ice—miniature icebergs—and glide over the dark chasms of flooded crevasses.

This unforgettable experience can only be accessed by helicopter, and the journey to these glaciers from Vancouver is beautiful in itself.
