"The Iron Chef BBQ Challenge gave us the opportunity to take the team outside of the office environment and release some stress by just laughing and having fun. When you work as hard as the group does at EB it is good every once and a while to have a breather. It was also an opportunity to work together on something that took us out of our normal comfort zones as not all of us are used to being in the kitchen cooking a meal for one's peers."

FAQs

When the ground is frozen and blanketed with mounds of white, fluffy, fresh snow we tend to forget that nearly all of mother nature’s animals are very much awake and active. Only a few animals such as the marmot and bears really hibernate for the winter season. On our snow shoe tours we will take you into the frozen wilderness to experience all the glory of a true Canadian winter.
