Your possible guides
Two guides run this day.
We don't pre-assign day-trip guides. You'll fish with one of these — matched to your group's experience, the season, and what kind of day you want on the water.
01 / 02
Wild-mushroom and seasonal-plant foraging in the Sea-to-Sky — followed by a cooked-on-the-fire lunch built around what you find.
Chris Maher leads most of these days. The day moves through the forest at a real pace — identifying, gathering, and learning the rules. We end the day around a fire with a meal built from the morning's haul.
Works in all four growing seasons but the species and the pace shift accordingly.
Hands-on instruction on edible vs. lookalike species.
Meal built around the day's foraged ingredients.
Pickup from your hotel or a downtown meeting point.
A guide, not a schedule. Timing flexes to conditions, the group, and what the day actually gives us.
8:30am start. Three to four hours moving slowly through the forest.
Fire-cooked lunch built around the morning's gathering.
Optional second walk or a sit-down beverage pairing class.
Back in the village by 5 – 6pm.

The day for groups who want a quieter experience — slower pace, more learning, real food at the end of it.
