    Panorama Mountain Resort in British Columbia, Canada offers an amazing winter tandem paragliding experience with expert flyer, Flying Max. During this ride, paragliders soar from the top of the Roller Coaster run at Panorama Mountain Resort and enjoy breathtaking views of the Purcell and Rocky Mountain ranges. After the take off, the snow, chairlifts and forests drop away beneath your skis as you soar above the surrounding mountain peaks and valleys strapped into a parachute. I highly recommend experiencing the freedom and exhilaration experienced from the passenger seat of a tandem paraglider with Flying Max at Panorama Mountain Resort in British Columbia, Canada.

    Yellowknife has not just one, but two ice roads! They are very different and can only be explored in the dead of winter.

    Welcome to our latest adventure as we navigate the icy landscapes on the Dettah Ice Road and the Tibbitt to Contwoyto Winter Road!

    This year, the Dettah Ice Road opened late, but we were fortunate enough to catch it in its frozen glory. It's been a dream of mine to experience this iconic ice road, and I was thrilled to finally check it off my Bucket List!

    From the shimmering ice of Great Slave Lake to the rugged terrain of the Tibbitt to Contwoyto Winter Road, marvel at the breathtaking scenery and share our excitement for this incredible winter adventure.

    I love the blues! Friends in Victoria have introduced me to Hermann's Jazz Club where they have a blues jam session on Sunday afternoons. We dropped in on Sunday afternoon and really enjoyed the musicians who made up four groups performing that day. I don't think there was an empty seat in the place. 

    The Blues Jam is moving, however, on the 17th of March, 2024. So, if you're visiting Victoria, be sure to check the address of their new location. My apologies for noting the date of the move but not the address. It is not posted online yet. I'll be sure to check out their new premises on my next visit to Vancouver Island.

    While in Yellowknife, we experienced the dual wonders of a sunrise and the Aurora Borealis.

    We took a short walk up Tin Call Hill to witness the sky transform into a canvas of vibrant hues over the Ice Road of Yellowknife Bay.

    Later that day, we were mesmerized by the Northern Lights dancing in the sky over the Ice Road. Truly breathtaking! We were lucky to see them on our 2nd attempt as our APP only gave us a 13% chance for that evening. 

    Astronomy North installed mini-lighthouses around Yellowknife to ignite excitement about the breathtaking Aurora Borealis. These devices will illuminate when conditions are ideal for a dazzling light display. The Northern Lighthouse Project delivers a beacon of anticipation and delight for both locals & tourists.

    Yellowknife, Northwest Territories offers a unique opportunity to capture the magic of both celestial events.

    This video includes the Houseboats of Yellowknife Bay; lived in year-round.
    And, a 'how to layer up' for cold weather demo.

    • Was just thinking too, if it takes two months to build do they take it down at the end of the festival or let it melt throughout the warmer months?

    • Kim Kenyon I think they leave it to melt. The festival closed early only once in 2019 due to warm temperatures. The castle flooded.

    From March 1st to 3rd, the shores of Yellowknife Bay came alive with the sound of chisels and the sight of master artisans at work during the 8th Annual Carving Symposium at SnowKings’ Winter Festival.

    International, national and local teams gathered to participate in this prestigious event, consisting of three members. With nothing but their creativity and skill, they embarked on a journey to transform colossal 10x10x10 ft blocks of snow into awe-inspiring sculptures, all against the backdrop of the majestic snow castle. With no set theme, artists let their creativity soar, sculpting magnificent creations.

    Join us as we marvel at the beauty of these frozen masterpieces and celebrate the enduring spirit of artistic expression in the heart of winter.

    Join us on our latest adventure as we journey into the icy wonderland of Yellowknife, Northwest Territories, to explore the breathtaking natural phenomenon of the Back Bay Ice Falls. 

    We trekked along a path leading to an amazing view of Great Slave Lake. Then, followed the shoreline and passed through Back Bay Cemetery to reach the Ice Curtains. Returning on the marked trail, we completed a 3km loop.

    Bundle up as it can be quite windy on the Lake. Snow grips for your boots and walking sticks are highly recommended as some sections of this hike can be slippery.

    See the adventure through our eyes ...
