In 2011 Polar Explorer Eric Larsen captivated CMH Summer Adventures guests in the Bugaboo Lodge with tales of his 365-day mission to reach both the North and South Poles and the summit of Mt. Everest. Eric and his three expedition teams faced extreme temperatures and conditions ranging from white outs to shifting ice floes while dealing with complex team dynamics, gear malfunctions and accidents during the 'Save the Poles' expedition.

  1. Reviewer: Rich M. located in New York, NY USA

    The entire staff was nothing short of wonderful. The European mountain guide heritage of Safety and Service can be nowhere more apparent. Every request was fulfilled instantly. Never once did any of us feel that they were putting someone out. The guides were a wonderful combination of compelling naturalist and logistical/mathematical genius.

  2. Reviewer: Hoby D. located in Seattle, WA USA

    Our trip was wonderful.

     

    Yeah, your lodge was wonderful.

    Yeah, your food was great.

    Yeah, the setting was beautiful.

     

    But it was your people that made the difference, and that left the most lasting memory. They were awesome. From the guy who fueled the chopper, to the guides, to the pastry chef, your staff is what makes people take a second mortgage to come back again. My wife, our 13 year-old daughter, and our 11 year-old son had a great time.

    The most memorable trip of our life!!!  The untouched ruggedness and natural beauty of some of most magnificent country in the world.  Canadian Mountain Holidays staff made this happen with an incredibly well planned vacation.
